Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667215 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 184 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The Animal on the Stone or The Fable of the Egg are the same novel. I had those titles and decided that the first one was more enigmatic and perhaps lyrical, because the second one could be related to some episode in the kitchen, at breakfast time. The book can be read in one sitting, I have been told. So the reader gets up more or less early, has breakfast and then reads it, he will be free by midday and can take advantage of the rest of Saturday or Sunday. It is possible that he will get hungry in the meantime and even want to eat red meat because the protagonist goes to the supermarket and buys meat. It is also possible that he will have a desire to eat insects. None of that matters, either way. If the reader wants to escape, he can do so, that is his right. The first line will warn him of what he can find later: “My house was the territory of an extraordinary event.” Daniela Tarazona foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Maybe, but those are not the kind of stories you'll find in this book.

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851171 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 168 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis At first glance, reading is a simple action: all you have to do is turn the pages while your gaze deciphers the signs written on them. But reading is also a fantastic act: it allows you to discover other thoughts and experiences, to imagine other worlds. There is something about reading that feeds the passionate obsession of the reader; unraveling the words of books transforms life. In this brief essay that plays with narration and poetry, Luna Miguel tells us how the Reader reads during the summer. Ferociously advancing through books that she finishes in days, or taking weeks to read others, she discovers that there is a relationship between the desire to read and her coquetry. It is no longer about finding out why one reads and what it is for, but about heroically abandoning oneself to the act of reading itself and giving oneself over to excess as if it were an adventure. Wearing a pink bikini or topless under the sun, the Reader seems to give up the idea that one reads in the ascetic solitude of the mind. One reads with others, with lovers and friends; Reading requires, above all, the awakening of all the senses and their pleasures. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

After introducing economic poverty and his Integrated Measurement Method in the first, he now explores “human poverty,” “well-being,” and “human flourishing.” Drawing on Marxian Philosophical Anthropology and engaging with Sen, Nussbaum, Maslow, and Fromm, he proposes the “New Paradigm of Poverty and Human Flourishing,” a groundbreaking approach that challenges reductionism and offers tools to rethink life in the 21st century. foreign rights contact Gloria Negrete Rosillo; Rocío Martínez Velázquez E-mail gnegrete@sigloxxieditores.com.mx; rmartinez@sigloxxieditores.com.mx -
