This article begins with an analysis of the years of cultural activism of the Mexican writer Efraín Huerta at the beginning of the Cold War to approach the study of the book of poems published in 1956 entitled Los poemas de viaje (1949–1953). The study traces the Mexican writer’s travels through the Eastern Bloc countries and analyses the writing of the main poems in the collection, guided by the poetics of geography, in order to study the fictionalization of urban space in the poems about Prague, Moscow, and Budapest and how it influences the poet’s ideological stance.
