El canto bien temperado es sustituido por la visión febril, y la poesía se vuelve delirio: una vez abierto el surco, metáfora no sólo del verso sino de la herida, toma distancia de él, una distancia crítica y de foco. No de otra forma se puede, ni más ni menos, arar en el vacío. Historial clínico no sólo representa el libro más personal de Plascencia Ñol; integra, además, un deslumbrante capítulo de nuestra poesía elegiaca.

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851676 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 152 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis One cold, wet afternoon, after leaving work at the Ciudad Láser beauty center, Soledad prepares to return home, but never arrives at her destination. Giselle Horn, a detective about to retire, descends into the depths of a city that has forgotten its people, to follow the trail of someone who took a deep secret with him. Meanwhile, Raúl, her boyfriend, finds himself dragged into an existence darkened by guilt. As the investigation progresses, Soledad's absence pushes Horn to delve into his own past to find the answers, because in a reality where nothing is what it seems and the illusion of freedom consumes itself, sometimes it is necessary to retrace steps to unravel the mystery. On the borders of the noir novel, Ciudad Láser is a current x-ray of the corruption, machismo and perversion of desires that surround us. But above all, it is a truncated love story, where desire, and the lack that fuels it, tumble into a spiral of violence overshadowed by a disappearance. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Examen extraordinario

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667659 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 312 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis A mariachi with serious identity conflicts, quarrels between writers that go back to bellicose youthful encounters in writing workshops, emails sent from somewhat uncertain planes of existence, the countercultural odyssey of a father to ingratiate himself with his daughter, multiple modalities of that variation of masochism known as romance, the anthology Examen ejemplar, prepared by the author himself, condenses the techniques, strategies and narrative motifs of one of the most outstanding literary careers of today. More than a gesture of triumphalism, this volume has a desire for a second chance. The stories gathered here await a second encounter with the reader, the final arbiter of all literature. But this revenge is not granted due to any failure, but as confirmation of the qualities of an extraordinary pen. The vision of the chronicler, the scope of the novelist, the subtle ability to move the playwright: the arsenal of resources of an author as unique as Juan Villoro is presented in this volume to an extraordinary examination in which, without a doubt, the one who will come out ahead is a genre that does not allow distractions: the short story. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx
