El vértigo horizontal
Read moreTitle El vértigo horizontal Author Villoro, Juan Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764761 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 456 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Convinced that Mexico City may not be the most advisable region to live in, but also that it is so intricate and exciting that it is impossible to leave it, Juan Villoro proposes this book written from the devotion of the recalcitrant and amazed urbanite that unfolds like an infinite puzzle: the shortcuts, the wrestling movies, the national heroes, the Tepiteño commerce, the government paperwork, the enigma of the tire repair shops, the countless crowds, the consumption of chili, the ancestral temples. The author also narrates certain autobiographical passages, such as the last walk with his grandmother or the memory of the neighborhood of abandoned houses where he grew up. With an attentive gaze and a firm pulse, Villoro unfolds as a journalist, passerby, pen buyer, nostalgic adult, responsible father, emergency brigade member, and offers us a testimony of the multiple adventures that the city has in store for each and every one of its members. Whether from his own experience or through listening to and investigating other people's realities, Juan Villoro composes a great fresco of the endearing and eternal chaos that makes up the country's capital. The space in which nothing fits anymore, but nothing is ever left over: Chilangópolis. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
No fue penal
Read moreTitle No fue penal Author Villoro, Juan Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851508 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 104 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis It Wasn't a Penalty offers two versions of the same play. In dramatic fashion, this move brings together two friends whom fate has turned into enemies. El Tanque is the manager of a team that will be relegated to the second division if they lose the match. From his small prison as a technical director, he faces something more than the score: his future and his past are at stake. With his throat torn to pieces, he fights against the clumsiness of his own players and the decisions of the referee. Meanwhile, he is observed by Valeriano Fuentes, the former friend with whom he shared a tragedy that changed their lives and who is now in charge of the implacable justice of the VAR. For years, Juan Villoro, winner of the Manuel Vázquez Montalbán International Award for Dios es redondo, has written chronicles and essays on football. This time he uses two complementary narratives to tell a story about sporting passion, brotherhood and rivalries, and to explore the theatrical condition of those who intervene in the game from off the field. Controversial plays depend on who watches them. It Wasn't a Penalty brings to light a disconcerting condition of sport: what is legitimate for some is an insult for others. The match is stopped and the action is reviewed by the VAR. What will be the verdict? Two very different stories explain this disturbing moment of decision. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
