    THEMA Crime and mystery: hard-boiled crime, noir fiction; Reportage, journalism or collected columns
    Synopsis Sylvia Arvizu spent 15 years in jail. She wrote two books about her experiences there and the cases of her inmates. Her life has offered her powerful anecdotes, but also put her amidst stories that she has learned to share with talent and sensibility through a wide range of narrative forms. Polishing and sharpening them has made her win an important literary price with one of her first books as well as with this one, where beside the stories of incarceration also appear those of her freedom on parole, which start just when the lockdown for the Covid pandemic was implemented in her city.

    THEMA Social & cultural anthropology
    Synopsis This work highlights and analyzes the risks involved in fieldwork in different contexts, often in the face of a reality that surprises, disturbs and amazes. These are reflections that seek to understand the anthropological experience in the face of otherness, such as the prevailing submission among social groups with colonial overtones; the taboos surrounding the work of women anthropologists; the places where violence is the daily struggle for life itself and the raid of the narco in the music production industry.

    Synopsis I am a mountaineer who is climbing Everest with the most ultramodern equipment: climbing shoes, harness, helmet, protein bars, water and even a small compass. Suddenly an avalanche, who knows where it came from, sweeps me away and sets me back a day and a half of trekking; I lose everything, even the little mother's compass. And as if that were not enough, it starts snowing, the sun disappears, I'm ten degrees below zero and I have no idea what to do. That's a crisis. Now try moving everything into my bedroom." Dana doesn't want to get out of bed, she doesn't want to eat, she's sad, she cries...she speeds up and shuts down. What's wrong with Dana and why? All the doctors tell her different things and prescribe thousands of medications. Dana is fed up: she will have to be the one to put an end to this unbearable situation... A book that deals with the subject of depression from the very voice of a young woman who experiences it.

    Synopsis The protagonist of this story is a boy passionate about soccer who plays goalkeeper on his school team, not only because he's very good at stopping shots on goal, but because it's the position in which he gets the least fatigued while playing. The problem arises when even the movement to stop a ball makes him feel suffocated. Doctors discover he has a heart murmur—a training error. With the help of surgery and care, as well as willpower and passion, this boy will be able to pursue his dream of becoming a great soccer player.

    Synopsis When I started working with Almadía, almost three decades ago, they already conceived their collections as a gift for readers. Los Culpables was the first book I designed for them, in 2007. I thought of a graphic proposal that would surprise: the challenge was to bring the colorful, tactile, and artisanal atmosphere of Oaxaca to paper. I knew I had the opportunity to do something different in terms of graphic design. I read the book and had a lot of fun; the stories are short and have an exceptional sense of humor. Talking with the team, we agreed that the emblematic image on the cover should come from the phrase “It was the iguana’s fault,” which opens the fifth story in the book, “The Mayan Twilight.” The double cover of Los Culpables started a double game that survives to this day. At that time, Juan Villoro commented that just as the iguana changes its skin, Almadía’s books are skinnable and the shirt is a second skin that reveals the secret image on the cover. I took a risk with the design because Almadía was open to change. Perhaps the shirt die is the most daring one we have ever printed: the reptile was too big and in the first edition the “second skin” was very fragile. Since then, this work has been reprinted and reissued many times, becoming the one with the most readers in the history of the publishing house. From the first reprint, I modified the design and added a branch that runs through the body of the sauropsid to give greater resistance and strength to the cardboard. To celebrate its seventh anniversary, Almadía published a commemorative edition of this same work in large format, hardcover and illustrated by me. These drawings are tangential glances at Juan’s funny stories. It seemed to me a cacophonous gesture to bring images that are described in the story to the graphic, so I preferred to represent scenes that perhaps could have happened, turning the images into satellites of the author’s narrative universe. In this third edition and eighth reprint, the emblematic lizard lives more discreetly on the cover, and the fact that I wrote the little text you are reading right now is also, without a doubt, the fault of the iguana.

    Synopsis This child tells us that he is not happy with the head that he has. He thinks it is a wrong head. The parents, after listening to him, take him to a specialist, who agrees with the little one. A mysterious man dressed in black supplies her with heads in exchange for his own. The child tries several, until he finds the one he was looking for. The narrator child and protagonist of this story tells us about his disagreement with the head he has and the vicissitudes that he has to go through to find the head with which he will finally agree : the head of a grown man, of a mathematician. This is a story of search for identity and growth, developed with fine fantasy and humor, with the wisdom of someone he has sought and perhaps already found.
