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. foreign rights contact Déborah Holtz E-mail deborah@trilce.com.mx -

Serie de circunstancias posibles en torno a una mujer mexicana de clase trabajadora
Read moreTitle Serie de circunstancias posibles en torno a una mujer mexicana de clase trabajadora Author Segura, Yolanda Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851331 Edition number 2 Publication year 2023 Pages 80 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items 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. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Política y geopolítica para rebeldes, irreverentes y escépticos
Read moreTitle Política y geopolítica para rebeldes, irreverentes y escépticos Author Augusto Zamora Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9788416842247 Edition number 3 Publication year 2018 Pages 440 Format Printed 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. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -

Señales distantes

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667963 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 163 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items 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. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Monkey boy

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851140 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 384 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items 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. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764518 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 144 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items 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. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

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.
