    Synopsis We cannot conceive of the world without the pencil, the wheel, or the spoon. However, there were times when humans had to manage without these instruments. The genesis and development of 30 everyday objects, products of human genius and the quest to make our lives easier, is narrated simply and concisely in this book filled with equally creative images. Some are as sophisticated as the television, the computer, or the automobile, and others are simple and indispensable, like the screw, shoes, or matches.

    THEMA Children’s, Teenage
    Synopsis "In this book you may find one person… ¿or is it something else? Two mirrors, three volcanoes that might not erupt lava. Four unconventional chairs, nine months waiting for your new sibling, twenty-six letters that can form each word. Seventy-two hidden travellers and one hundred feet that are not necessarily those of a centipede; three hundred and sixty fives books to read, among many other surprises. As you can see, this book not only counts from one to ten, but it takes children and not so children to discover the magic behind numbers in a fun game of words and splendid illustrations by Amanda Mijangos."

    Synopsis In the space that poetry opens between the flow of everyday words, a series of possible circumstances surrounding a working-class Mexican woman, she analyzes one of the core concepts of the capitalist economy. What is the “middle class”? Who is part of it? Is there a way to describe it, to count it? Are its members defined by the calculation of their income, what they own or dream of? By their future projects? While reflecting on these questions, Yolanda Segura tells the story of Eloísa, a woman born in the 1940s who has worked since she was very young. With a stable job and a secure salary, she soon faces the possibility of getting married and having a family. She wants to guarantee herself a prosperous and happy existence. Will it be enough to have a husband, to work her day, to obtain a mortgage loan? Why does the economic growth of a person or a country always happen in the future and never in the present? Do financial benefits increase social well-being? In the midst of inflation and wage cuts, of crisis and debt, how will she manage her time, desires and affections? Are there other ways to invent a livable life for a working woman? For Yolanda Segura, a poem is a form of resistance, a way of cancelling the economic value of language.

    THEMA policy
    Synopsis New edition of a book that, in just over a year, has become a reference in the field of geopolitical analysis, with new materials on what happened around Iran, Turkey, Syria, Libya, the United States, Russia and China . We receive more information than ever, and yet it is also more conditioned than ever, since the constitution of a media oligopoly means that said information has a clear bias that serves the interests of its owners. And this fact is reflected with particular harshness in the field of politics and geopolitics, where the global vision of a world divided between "good" (neoliberals) and "bad" (everyone else) is continually hammered by television, radio and newspaper headlines. Hence, to understand our world well (and try to change it, now that we still have time), it is necessary to almost start from scratch. Such is the purpose of this book. Aimed at a young audience from 18 to 90 years old, its pages reveal the concepts, theories and protagonists that have shaped and shape the sociopolitical context that surrounds us. From cartographic projections to the Cold War, from "failed states" to "rogue states", from the United States to Afghanistan, from the Cold War to banks, it offers a panorama that will undoubtedly surprise the reader, since it does not completely match the “official version”. A pleasant and ironic text that, without losing rigor, is addressed to all the "skeptics, submissives and misfits" who do not agree with what the establishment dictates or with the supposed "truths" on which the "sad" reality is based. . And not only to those who are already aware of it, but to those who do not know it yet.

A Mexican lawyer, politician, writer, educator, civil servant and philosopher, Vasconcelos wrote essays and treatises throughout his life that give an account of his thinking, which evolved from an idealistic spirit to a tortuous one, always endowed with luminosity.

    Synopsis Blood is not only flesh, but represents the historical-material unity in which human life is constituted. Blood is the symbol of the spiritual body, of the vital matter that is historically placed at the center of the constitution not only of one's own body but, from the lived body, of the properly human social world. This book is a journey through the spiritual genesis of human animality and, with it, the material origin of the generative sociality of existence.

    Synopsis In “Prima materia,” a young acolyte suffers from a strange illness – or curse – due to which his body slowly takes on the texture of a rock. In “La jaula,” the gift that a suitor buys for a girl is rejected, which turns it into a symbol of failure. A Mexican tourist is taken by a young Japanese woman to her small coastal town, where they will take an unexpected role in an ancestral rite, in “El sueño de la esposa del pescador.” “Señales lejanos” tells the story of a mother who is looking for her missing daughter. In “Insomnio,” a man is kidnapped after a sleepless night; his memories let us know that his sleepless nights have a tragic origin. In “Déjà vu,” a woman and her writer husband find themselves trapped in a time loop. “Gestación” tells the story of a young couple who work in a pozolería to guarantee the material support of the child they are expecting; Here, the child and the raw material of his work end up coinciding in a terrifying way. “Gnossienne” has as its protagonist a musician made a prophet by a post-apocalyptic humanity that does not know noise. Finally, “Rebis” is an intense mystical journey full of hermetic allusions. Antonio Vásquez surprises us again with his narrative mastery, this time with a book of short stories whose stories are intertwined with each other, like the sounds of an orchestra that amalgamate until they become an extraordinary symphony. The characters in these stories seem to assure us that where the deepest human pains and obsessions exist, its most fervent desires, a door opens for the extraordinary to take place. The fantastic in Antonio Vásquez's stories is not presented as a handful of magical acts but as a way of seeing and feeling the world, as the mythical thread that connects our intimate daily deaths and resurrections with the mystery of creation: the cycle of the origin of life and its inevitable destruction.

    Synopsis Like a late winter blizzard, memories rush into the mind of Francisco (Frankie) Goldberg, the protagonist of this story, as he travels by train from New York to Boston, his hometown. Forced to return to North America as a result of fierce political persecution, the marked distance he has built up with his family suddenly vanishes. Now he goes to meet his mother, his sister, an interrupted school love, and also the scars that growing up in the American northeast leaves on a child of a Russian Jewish father and a Guatemalan Catholic mother. Moving, funny, and disturbing in equal measure, Monkey Boy unfolds a network of temporalities that makes evident the impossibility of an immutable past, while highlighting the omissions with which we construct the stories we tell about ourselves. In this novel, Francisco Goldman has written a brilliant reflection and a clear x-ray of the individual and collective identity of a country that, like many, is inhabited by people of multiple geographic and cultural origins. But above all, this book is a celebration of female strength, without which overcoming the most turbulent childhoods would be practically impossible.

    Synopsis On December 29, 2004, during a concert by the rock band Callejeros at the República de Cromañón establishment, located in the Once neighborhood of Buenos Aires, a flare started a fire that caused the death of almost two hundred young people and injured many more. The night before, Camila Fabbri had been to one of the three concerts that the band was giving that week. In this book, the author reconstructs her own adolescence in the days before and after the tragedy, in addition to gathering the testimony of some survivors, family members and friends of the victims, as well as people who had no direct relationship with the event. Fabbri's writing thus becomes a tool to put an era into context; to build a collage and a chorus of voices that tells of what it was like to be a teenager at that time and to try to understand how it was possible to survive such a difficult episode.

The language shows us a way in which Neoliberalism settles in the politics of the country. This way, the author achieves an attractive volume of stories that reflects a crucial stage of the development of the nation, without forced lessons or moral subtexts, but only using the historical context as a background that creates a notable balance between literature and history.

    Synopsis More than a book, this object is a carnival of fifty seasons that parades behind the scenes of Mexican culture. Tin Tan and Pita Amor, María Félix and Monsiváis, Piporro and Tongolele, Nahui Olin and Jorge Ibargüengoitia the generation of the beats, and Marilyn Monroe, Vitola and José Revueltas, among many others. As they pass by, they tell us about their vices, superstitions, their quarrels and nicknames, their affairs and the cabarets they visited. Guided by Julia Santibáñez's insatiable curiosity, we find out who were guests at Lecumberri and who were invited to Carlos Fuentes' house; which writers played the role of actors and which books and films enjoyed the reverse marketing of censorship and why. Find out here what ceremonious books will never say about writers, artists and intellectuals.

    Synopsis "Bruno is not very attached to his grandfather, who is cold and distant. Discovering a me- mory loss condition and a deal between the two of them will unite their ties in the most moving way for whatever time they have left. His love for drawing and his fascination with Japanese animation films will accompany Bruno in his search for answers, and his maturation processes on his exploration of his complex family nucleus. A novel full of emotional moments that conveys to us the frenzy of youth. Undoubtedly a moving and tender story that invites us to look at the past and the future but, above all, to stay in the present."

    Synopsis The pre-Hispanic remains of Mexico City, once the scene of extreme rites of a faith that we still have trouble understanding, are turned into crime scenes by a fanatic who seeks to restore the greatness of the great Tenochtitlan. The enormous metropolis suddenly pulsates to the rhythm of an ancient song that awakens a past of oppression and resistance, of integration and disagreement; the bloody trace of the clash of two worlds. After spending days living as a homeless person to write an investigative piece, Casasola, a reporter for Semanario Sensacional, is driven to follow the trail of The Ritual Killer. Elisa Matos, an archaeologist, hostage to an impulsive and chaotic love life, becomes an indispensable ally during his investigations, but also the object of his desire. Banished gods who refuse to die, characters determined to understand an enigmatic and distant past, authorities who suspect everyone. This novel has already become a classic of Mexican crime fiction in which crime, horror and fantasy literature come together in a thriller full of emotion and suspense.
