In addition to being festive, this edition resolved the gap left by the publication Toledo: la línea metafórica, published by Miguel Flores Ramírez in 1998. Of modest circulation and currently controversial as a bibliographic rarity, it began to bring together the works of poets seduced by the painter's eroticized territory. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667017 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 113 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Cameron, an elderly man with an artificial leg, has good reasons for not crossing certain precise boundaries of the city in which he lives. He spends his days contemplating the landscape, mountains, snow, a changing sky, and goes out for walks at night, sometimes to the pier, sometimes to the Jazz Club, sometimes to wander. One night, after a strange party and an early morning of which he remembers nothing, Cameron must take refuge in his neighbor Orsini's house, because the police are looking for him, although he does not know the reason. While he wonders what happened during the lost hours, the protagonist establishes a new relationship with his body and with the strange man who helps him. In this novel by Hernán Ronsino we find once again the Argentine region that the author has focused on mapping, one in which the past and the present are in permanent conflict, the stage in which individual identity and collective memory are played out. His narrative materials, volatile and enigmatic, sustain a tension that leads us through labyrinths of memory and perception toward the core of a mystery that reaches us to this day. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667222 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 445 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In Is There Life on Earth? Juan Villoro offers us a broad sample of his ability to analyze our present and manages to make sense of the untamed daily life when organized into a story. In these pages, the author analyzes the strange mystery of being Mexican, undertakes the arduous task of changing his mattress, develops a theory of mariachi, witnesses a confession by the Japanese writer Kenzaburo Oé, meets two turtles in the Dachau concentration camp, opens a suitcase that contains the pain of Republican exile, faces the enormous challenge of asking for a cappuccino and is mistaken for a priest. With Is There Life on Earth? Almadía reached one hundred published titles. Therefore, it was only logical to celebrate with a volume made up of one hundred stories characterized by addictive prose and a hilarious catalog of paranoias, misunderstandings, annoyances and illusions that make up daily life. Seven years after its appearance in our publishing house, and after the publication of two hundred other titles, we are pleased to see that Is There Life on Earth? remains one of the most sought-after titles in our catalogue, which shows us that there are and will continue to be new readers willing to search for the forms that life takes on Earth. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
Peces del aire altísimo

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667079 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 237 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The main idea of Peces del aire altisísimo is that poetry, as a vital impulse and ultimate vocation of a life, is not restricted exclusively to the texts of those who construct it with their incessant work. On the contrary, this inclination towards the construction of new corridors and rooms of our home that is language, extends into the daily life of every poet. Gilberto Owen, Carlos Pellicer, Luis Cernuda, Rubén Bonifaz Núño, Alí Chumacero and Efraín Huerta are some of the poets whose life and work are woven together by Vicente Quirarte in this book, to show that the daily choices, the poet's own habits and obsessions, as well as his vices and virtues, are not only the inexorable consequence of his personality, but extensions of his literary work itself; expansions of the prodigious worlds that they built with their pen. Thanks to the erudition of a committed and passionate reader, but also with the closeness and intimacy of a friend, Quirarte offers wonderful portraits of characters whose words have already found their place as the pinnacles of Mexican literature. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764709 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 200 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Nefando revolves around a video game from the Deep Web; a digital enigma that has caused a scandal for containing images that dislocate all morals. As an investigation, the novel is built with testimonies from those involved in the creation of the game: a Spanish programmer, two Mexican literature students and three Ecuadorian brothers, all living in the same apartment in Barcelona. In this way, different plots unravel to reveal stories whose wounds remain raw: nonconformity with biological gender, an abusive father, an overprotective mother. As a complement to this complex narrative framework, the writing of a pornographic novel by one of the characters finds a place in Nefando: in it, two sadomasochistic teenagers –Diego and Eduardo– find in Nella, a new student at the boarding school where they live, the accomplice and challenge of their desire. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667192 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 128 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis I once had a company (I was the boss and had only one employee) dedicated solely to publishing a literary magazine. One of the things I did frequently was fill out power of attorney letters. At that time I went out to buy them at the stationery store, until one day it occurred to me to capture it on my computer and, when necessary, print it. Towards the end of 2007, in a moment of leisure, I reread that document that almost all of us signed without fully understanding the legal terms it contained (“dilatory and peremptory exceptions,” “auctions,” “interlocutory and definitive matters,” etc.) and I decided to compose a love “poem” with those words as a solitary game without the purpose of publication. In June 2008, I was invited to a writers’ meeting in San Luis Potosí. To conclude, we participants were asked to read something from our work. Each one would have a maximum of three minutes. Of course, the poets had plenty to choose from. A writer of short fiction could have read his complete work, but we, the narrators, were left defenseless. Then I remembered that the “poem” entitled Carta poder was on my computer. I transcribed it on a sheet of hotel letterhead and read it. Some of my colleagues liked the game and there was even someone who asked me to give them the manuscript. Back in Mexico City, I asked myself: And who is she, the recipient? From that question was born Poesía eras tú. Francisco Hinojosa foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Author Enrique Cambón Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789871984176 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 240 Format Printed THEMA Agnosticism & atheism Synopsis If God exists, why doesn't he make himself present in a tangible way, why doesn't he act and intervene in an effective and evident way to bring about all the positive things he wishes to promote in humanity? This question contains within itself a genuine and fruitful search for God, whether it comes from an atheistic, agnostic or believing conviction, or from those who “do not succeed” in believing in God even though they ardently desire it. It is a cry that is expressed, explicitly or in the most intimate of many, as a sometimes dramatic claim: “God, why don't you give me the faith I desire so much? foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
Rossini y Schubert
Read moreTitle Rossini y Schubert Author Adolfo Martínez Palomo Publisher El Colegio Nacional Imprint El Colegio Nacional ISBN 9786077244127 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 86 Format Print and digital THEMA Biography, Literature and Literary studies Synopsis Five years separate the births of Rossini and Schubert, yet their lives are diametrically opposite. Gioachino dies old, rich, famous, and exhausted; Franz, on the other hand, dies very young, poor, and at the height of his productivity. Schubert was influenced by Rossini, whom he admired for his operas, which were a sensation in early 19th century Vienna. Rossini did not get to know Schubert's musical work. The medical histories of these two musical giants allow us to understand the cause of Rossini's creative eclipse and the reasons behind Schubert's premature death. foreign rights contact Alejandro Cruz Atienza E-mail a.cruzatienza@colnal.mx -
Ää: manifiestos sobre la diversidad lingüística
Read moreTitle Ää: manifiestos sobre la diversidad lingüística Author Aguilar Gil, Yásnaya Elena Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764792 Edition number 2 Publication year 2022 Pages 208 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Reading the articles by Yásnaya Aguilar compiled in this volume, as well as the many comments on social media that accompany and enrich them, is a pleasure that I wholeheartedly recommend to readers. Throughout these texts, as entertaining as they are refreshing, it is clear that Yásnaya Aguilar has been able to see beyond impositions and violence, driven by her deep passion for languages, for linguistics, for literature, to go beyond the confines of her native Ayuujk and her learned Spanish, to approach the most widely spoken languages in the world, such as Russian, but also the countless indigenous languages that throughout the planet are marginalized, threatened and, sometimes, on the verge of extinction. In his unpretentious use of the plain Mexican dialect of Castilian, the constant generosity of his style, his humor and sincerity stand out, which allows him to construct a defense as passionate as it is reasonable, as rigorous as it is entertaining, of the value of indigenous languages, of cultural plurality, of the vitality of the traditions of our native peoples. This clarity also gives greater force to his denunciations against linguistic discrimination, against the contempt for indigenous languages and against the arrogance of the defenders of Spanish as the national language. Written over the course of a decade, this book is destined to be an exponent of an authentic blossoming and renaissance of contemporary thought in indigenous languages.

Maybe, but those are not the kind of stories you'll find in this book. Although the first work of Mexican science fiction dates from 1775, perpetrators of the subgenre have had to publish their work from the margins. With rare exceptions, the storytellers of the imaginative have formed a ghostly guild. To disseminate the work of this strange guild, illustrator and writer Bef offers us here a handful of his favorite Mexican stories inscribed in the so-called speculative fiction. foreign rights contact Estela Ruiz Torres E-mail estela.ruiz.torres@grupo-sm.com -

Resorting to them is a well-established and accepted way of doing politics, establishing social ties, and organizing society by state, social, and organized crime actors.
