La octava plaga
Read moreTitle La octava plaga Author Esquinca, Bernardo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764488 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 232 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis When the idea for The Eighth Plague began to float around in my head, one thing was clear: its protagonist would not be a conventional detective. I came from the world of journalism, where I trained as a writer for many years; the vicissitudes of reporters and the atmosphere of newsrooms were familiar to me, so it seemed like an act of congruence for Casasola to have that profession. However, I never worked in crime fiction, something I would have loved; having my journalist in charge of covering the police beat was a settling of scores: that, among other things, is what literature is for. I also knew that I wanted to mix genres: reality has never been enough for me to put together the stories I want to tell. Although it was a rarity in the tradition of detective novels, especially in the one made in Mexico, my novel would fuse a police plot with the supernatural. The Motel Killer, the fantastic entity that Casasola faces, behaves like a praying mantis: she decapitates her lovers during sexual intercourse. Finding out why she – and apparently the rest of humanity – acts like an insect is the subject of a mystery with apocalyptic overtones. But there was something else: Casasola had to look like me and, therefore, he would be an exile. He had to go from the culture section of the newspaper where he worked to the crime section: a universe unknown to both him and me. A path that we would travel and discover together. In the end, we had such a good time that The Eighth Plague became a saga. Mexico City is the ideal setting because, as we already know, in its streets and nooks and crannies the strange and chilling are part of the landscape.

Educar a los topos
Read moreTitle Educar a los topos Author Fadanelli, Guillermo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667376 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 153 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis When reason goes on holiday, then life, naked and bitter, presents itself without any invitation, and the facts take on an all-too-real weight. Something like this happened to me during my time at school until I was just over 17 years old. Once handed over and submitted to the military institution, I had to suffer the sword, the mockery, the whip, the expulsion from the adolescent paradise. Educating the moles is a novel that became a myth of my own life, a late atonement. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
