Planetas habitables
Read moreTitle Planetas habitables Author Diaz Castelo, Elisa Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851409 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 128 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Each reader is a world, and if we pay enough attention, so is every entity that surrounds him: the chair that supports him, the lamp that lights up his reading, the book he holds in his hands, the tiny nematode that flies over his head. Between each of these worlds, an incessant exchange takes place, an affective and material economy that transforms them. There are even encounters between them of such violence that we can think of them as collisions, great impacts that generate new worlds, with unprecedented links and flashes. In Habitable Planets, Elisa Díaz Castelo traces, thanks to a writing in which the words of science take on an unexpected sensuality and the subtleties of life spread the pleasure of irony, a meticulous map that seeks to account for the intricate network of connections deployed around us at every moment. If today there are those who think that, in the face of the announced disaster, the solution is the search for new worlds, in this collection of poems we are invited to find in language the reasons to keep habitable the singular complexity that shapes us and of which we are a part. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Here the central character is a being whose vital drives are his very essence: love, temper and desire. A work of action and suspense that contrasts scenarios separated by the fracture between life and death, passion and loneliness, cowardice and unfettered friendship, framed by the dazzle of sensuality, whether in the form of the affable tasting of an exquisite wine, the deepest meaning of affection or the delight of the female body: the perpetual salvation of the soul.

Vargas Llosa y el liberalismo en América Latina Author Boron, Atilio Alberto; Ramb Hughes, Ana María Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786079818593 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 240 Format Printed THEMA Political ideologies Synopsis To be fruitful, criticism must not attack a man, but rather work on ideas. The strength of the present analysis arises from the example that Atilio Boron (Buenos Aires, 1943) provides to his readers: the beauty in the discourse should not distract us from the approach or the arguments (if they exist). It is under this conviction that before us—and without anesthesia—a political dismantling is carried out with rigor and demand, at the level of a legend. Thus, with the intention of entering the core of Vargas Llosa, we start from his praise of the neoliberal system—of which he has become a great public defender—to discover a long-winded person close to power and its ideology, a disseminator hidden behind the branches of literature and the Latin American boom. Boron himself points it out: “Despite his elemental and tendentious handling of the categories and theories of political analysis, or perhaps due to the mastery with which he handles sophistry and 'post-truths', Vargas Llosa is a fundamental piece in the "massive device of 'brainwashing' and conservative propaganda that is so carefully practiced by the ruling classes of the metropolises and their henchmen in the periphery." foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -
