Algo anda mal. La ciencia (y las ventajas) de las anomalías
Read moreTitle Algo anda mal. La ciencia (y las ventajas) de las anomalías Author Sergio De Régules Publisher Siglo XXI Editores Imprint Siglo XXI Editores ISBN 9786070314896 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 168 Format Print and digital THEMA Popular science Synopsis In science, an “anomaly” arises when reality challenges theory. Sergio de Régules shows how these moments divide scientists: defenders of tradition against advocates of revolution. Through emblematic cases, he explains how anomalies can spark the creation of new entities, correct experimental errors, or even radically transform our understanding of the universe, making disruption fertile ground for discovery. foreign rights contact Gloria Negrete Rosillo; Rocío Martínez Velázquez E-mail gnegrete@sigloxxieditores.com.mx; rmartinez@sigloxxieditores.com.mx -

André Breton once said that Mexico was the country of choice for black humor. He was not exaggerating. And contrary to what they say out there, literature also proves him right: from José T. de Cuéllar to Jorge Ibargüengoitia, to mention the classics, several national writers have successfully resisted the onslaught of "serious literature". foreign rights contact Estela Ruiz Torres E-mail estela.ruiz.torres@grupo-sm.com -

Isla partida
Read moreTitle Isla partida Author Tarazona, Daniela Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851287 Edition number 2 Publication year 2023 Pages 139 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In the corridors of this novel, a woman repeats and multiplies herself. She splits into two. One of them chooses to give up and escape; the other remains following her own trail. Something happens in her brain. In that trance, when her memories, dreams and fears intersect in a continuous present, they wonder if the pulse of their desire is to continue living. Isla partida is a fractal, polyhedral novel, a writing of delirium that portrays a thought beyond limits; a house of mirrors made of language. Can writing account for an overflowing mind and the creations of its electric discharges? This book is Daniela Tarazona's bravest and most risky work. A narrative and poetic experience in which body, memory and delirium come into tension to recompose the world and, therefore, the identity of the self. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Todo lo que amamos y dejamos atrás

In the middle of the 21st century, the Earth has acquired similar rings to those of Saturn after a cataclysm that extinguished electric light and melted the soul of transistors and circuits of all the devices on which humanity relied. Accompanied by her stepson, Grijalva travels to Tamarindo, a town in Veracruz where children suffer from a rare disease: they speak and behave like they are someone different from who they were, possessed by distant and painful stories. The need for an explanation is urgent. There are signs that delirium can be contagious—and disturbing to authorities. As the investigation moves forward, the story reveals what happened to the planet twenty years before, when young Grijalva was in love with her music teacher, and her father, a digital emanation in a meticulous virtual world. What we love and leave behind is much more than an amazing science fiction novel. With intimate and precise language, Elisa de Gortari has written one possible shipwreck, but most importantly, a secret love letter to all the things that give meaning to us: from music and poetry, to the brilliance of the first times and the various, sometimes arduous, ways of taking care of and loving ourselves. foreign rights contact Oswaldo Muñoz, Quetzalli de la Concha E-mail oswaldo.munoz@penguinrandomhouse.com; quetzalli.delaconcha@penguinrandomhouse.com -

Haydn, Europe's most famous composer during his lifetime, remarked to Mozart's father: “I tell you before God, and as an honest man, that your son is the greatest composer I know”. Mozart, in turn, referred to Haydn as “my teacher”. The same generosity and the same musical language were present in two different personalities: one, boisterous and innovative; the other, austere and conservative. foreign rights contact Alejandro Cruz Atienza E-mail a.cruzatienza@colnal.mx -

There are too many wrong things in this world because of adults. But only the young, the ones that have the the slightest responsibility for the destruction, pain and barbarity, have the possibility of improving and correcting what we have left behind. This book is for them. Children, teenagers and young people caught in the middle of conflict are required to think or act as if they were older to remain safe. They are the ones we need to think about first and we need to comprehend them. If we had to choose a single reason to be aware of what happens far away, they are it. How we failed as adults is a puzzle of what is decomposed: the civil war in Syria, the crisis in Myanmar, the violation of human rights in Iran, the armed conflicts in Yemen, Libya, Palestine and Israel. foreign rights contact Oswaldo Muñoz, Quetzalli de la Concha E-mail oswaldo.munoz@penguinrandomhouse.com; quetzalli.delaconcha@penguinrandomhouse.com -

El día que apagaron la luz
Read moreTitle El día que apagaron la luz Author Fabbri, Camila Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. 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 -
