Moreover, to her absolute joy, she has a first-born in whom she has high hopes: brimming with qualities, real and imaginary, Renato is destined not only to run the business emporium created by his father, but, in time, to make her a proud grandmother. Nothing is perfect: Maria Helena has another son, a potential suicide... Why does Emiliano Rivera del Pozo wants to commit suicide? Because he lost all interest in the hypothetical future. Because this is an inhospitable world, conducive to loneliness. Because he is indifferent to opulence, power, social glitter. Because he thinks in his parents, and especially in his mother, he could never and never will be someone other than the invisible son on whose qualities it would be wrong to have expectations. foreign rights contact Quetzalli de la Concha Oswaldo Muñoz

Loxar Publisher Tori Imprint Tori ISBN 9798338310434 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 264 Format Digital THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis "The love became history, then legend, until it turned into myth. Some, with luck, find compatibility and passion, perhaps a bit of affection they can call 'love,' but the reality is sad for those who hold onto hope. The Great World Civil War, considered the most devastating in history, buried the legendary quests of the Elenion in fear and blood. The Paranormals stopped pursuing their soulmates to confront humans for their right to exist. Despite the disadvantage in numbers, they won; but they lost much in the process. When humans finally accepted treaties of peace and equality, everyone returned to a strange normality of governments and began to accept each other among different species without noticing that a vital piece for their existence was missing: Love. As the years passed, the small fragments of real love faded like flames in the rain. The Paranormals abandoned the search for their Elenion, and humans began to treat marriage as a commercial transaction. They say that hope is the first thing to appear when everything is lost. What happens when you don't know you've lost it? Perhaps a single drop of hope is all it takes to restore faith." foreign rights contact Adriana Magdalena Silva E-mail direccion.general@casaeditorialtori.com -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851188 Edition number 2 Publication year 2024 Pages 264 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Between 2003 and 2006, the corpses of elderly women appeared in lonely rooms in Mexico City, victims of a particular cruelty. One of the most venerated symbols of the Mexican idiosyncrasy had become prey to an elusive anger. With authorities incapable of putting a stop to this succession of murders, indignation and fear spread throughout the city. Thus arose the legend of the Mataviejitas, an entity created by crime news and urban folklore as responsible for the mysterious crimes. Faithful to his most notable obsessions, and without fear of exploring new narrative territories, Bernardo Esquinca returns to dissect this peculiar media phenomenon. Through the voices of various characters involved in the case – an obsessive criminalist, a gluttonous investigator, ambitious police agents, a committed crime reporter – the Mexican master of terror constructs an ambitious and ferocious polyphonic novel thanks to which we also learn the story of Chana Barrera, the woman behind the legend; an enigmatic wrestling fan who, after seeing all her hopes shattered, decides to undertake one last, brutal attempt to avoid ending up, herself, surrendered on the canvas. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

(In)visibles
Read moreTitle (In)visibles Author Bárbara Anderson Publisher Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial Imprint Aguilar ISBN 9786073820745 Edition number N/A Publication year 2022 Pages 336 Format Printed THEMA Disability: social aspects Synopsis In Mexico, more than 16% of the population, close to 21 million or 1 in 6 Mexicans million or 1 out of every 6 Mexicans has some type of type of disabling condition, why does it seem that we know of so many fewer cases? Because people with disabilities in Mexico are an invisible force. If it is not every four years that the Paralympics are held, if the the Paralympics, if it is not the International Day of PwDs, if it is not that the government gives fiscal benefits to promote the labor insertion of this group, the rest of the time, people with disabilities live in the shadows. This book seeks to shed a little light on just twenty-four of those millions we don't see. With disabilities from birth or acquired and of various types, and originating from various parts of the country, Olympic medalists, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, executives, politicians, public servants, artists, activists, lecturers, academics, lawyers, a doctor and even a stand-up comedian tell their stories for the first time with resilience, courage and purpose for the first time: to be references for other PwDs and to motivate the general population to be agents of change, to contribute to multiply that light and ensure inclusion in all aspects of life. A heartbreaking, inspiring and sui generis book in which the journalist and activist activist Barbara Anderson lends her pen to give voice to those who do not count, while renowned photographer Enrique Covarrubias illuminates their faces for the first time with a view among equals. (In)visibles is a reading that radically changes the way in which we see disability, moves consciences and invites to action. foreign rights contact Quetzalli de la Concha Oswaldo Muñoz

Living in a happy and stable relationship with a man, she discovered the true and most complete love in a woman. Without a second thought, she took the risk and threw herself into a romance that would last longer than a decade. But happiness did not let her see that the day of the breakup would come, and it would not only bring loneliness, but a deep fear. Fear because the person she loved could now become her worst enemy. A present fear that reminds her of older fears exile, disappearances, violence. Alone, locked up with her thoughts, she recalls scenes from the past. The joy of that time does not comfort her: it wounds her with subtlety. The memories hurt, the photos are now pieces of memory. Pieces that she will have to pick up and put away in some corner in order to be able to move on. foreign rights contact Quetzalli de la Concha Oswaldo Muñoz
