Read moreTitle Retrofuturismos Author Yaszek, Lisa Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851522 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 240 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis How much does our present resemble the future imagined by the writers of the last century? Does enthusiasm or caution regarding the use of technology persist? Have our problems changed, or is it that our dreams, fears and wounds remain? Under the title Retrofuturisms, the second installment of the collection The Future is Woman! brings together stories written between 1931 and 1966 by Sonya Dorman, Leslie F. Stone, Elizabeth Mann Borgese, Margaret St. Clair, Leigh Brackett, Carol Emshwiller, Rosel George Brown, Leslie Perri, Katherine MacLean and Andrew North, which allow us to explore the tensions between the future and the past through stories in the purest pulp style, centered on adventures in space. The first alien civilization that won a war against humans; a species of extraterrestrials that comes to Earth to share its knowledge but faces a violent and racist human population; a hunting dog in the middle of an existential dilemma on a frozen planet; Space travelers who contract strange diseases; a genderless civilization that disguises itself to coexist with humans; mothers who must maintain harmony between their children when a child from another planet joins their carpool; reckless women who do not hesitate to perform heroic acts in space. These stories demonstrate that science fiction writing is a great exercise in empathy. The writers in this collection imagined new worlds based on understanding and solidarity with other beings, perhaps based on knowing themselves to be representatives of a certain otherness in their time. The stories contained here reaffirm that moving the conventional center of the stories we tell not only refreshes our narratives, but invites us to move our own center and thus glimpse new discussions and ways of living in community. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

What is behind Gifford's fondness for picturesque appellations? » Many things: the loneliness of the border, of that mythical territory between the United States and Mexico, and the loneliness of all men... portraits turned to dust and wind. » Roberto Bolaño In the border region between Coahuila and Texas, near Piedras Negras, a tribe of Seminole Indians seeks to escape persecution by the United States government. The blood and culture of the Creeks and the black slaves who have escaped from the plantations live and mix there; together they look for a place to live and prosper in peace. The Mexican government offers them Birth in exchange for fighting against the local native rebels. However, this territory is more porous and conflictive than it seems at first glance and, as the story progresses, the battle fronts multiply. Cass Dupuy, a retired ranger, will try all kinds of alliances to get a cut of the inhuman business of slavery. Teresa, his daughter, is a brave young woman who flees from her father's ranch in the company of Sonny, the son of a legendary Seminole chief. These characters trace, at the center of the story, a story of love and revenge that opens a path between blood and bullets. The hunch leads us through a territory of adventure and heroism. Barry Gifford is one of those rare writers who moves us, touches us and shakes us on the same page. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

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 -

If his previous book, Antinaufragios, invited to a vital celebration in spite of the disasters of History, Palabras ojos raises, from a different but also anti-nihilist perspective, the possibility of a true life. A praise of the imagination and the experience of poetry, shared with the reader. foreign rights contact María Fuentes E-mail edicion@vasoroto.com -

In their temples, carved objects and codices that have survived the passage of time and colonisation, we can witness an advanced technological, philosophical and social thought that led to the expansion of the Aztecs throughout Central America.

The characters are diverse as a preacher that tries to be autocratic in the times of the New Spain, the son of mythological Ayax, a bureaucrat that after gray years of existence plans his own assasination, the british writer John Milton -to whom God and the Devil dictated Paradise Lost- and a priest incapable of stopping his tears, among many others. Each one of these characters questions, in a brave and foolish avalanche, the certainties from which they should live. They are all beings dissatisfied with accepting the certenties that might shape their existence, those who keep the rest of the world satisfied. The Reality of Fireflies is a book full of notable moments that create restlessness in the mind of its readers. foreign rights contact Jacqueline Santos E-mail textofilia.editorial@gmail.com -

Tiempo y liberación. Exordio a pensamientos liberatorios, vivenciales y decoloniales
Read moreTitle Tiempo y liberación. Exordio a pensamientos liberatorios, vivenciales y decoloniales Author Vallega Arredondo, Alejandro Arturo Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786078683147 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 368 Format Printed THEMA Critical philosophy Synopsis We will make an exception: for this book we will not talk about its themes or the authors with whom it dialogues, but rather its effects. Hidden within its pages is an invitation to live, think and position oneself from Latin America, which—in short—means nothing other than experiencing the crisis at all times. Latin America understood as a temporary, dynamic fact; a being-being that situates, but also transforms. Living in crisis is, then, presented as a fruitful option towards new modalities of consciousness. The route that we present here does not go through ideal concepts; in fact, it avoids the transcendental: it is on cultural consciousness and concrete experience (from the Latin concrescere, “grown by accumulation”) that the yeast of this book works. In the analysis of daily living/dying as a phenomenon, we are presented with a path towards that which is understood through the senses and not reason; towards what is prior to concepts and even to the acquisition of language: to what is involuntary/embodied memory. It is in the concrete and radical meeting of all these parts that a decolonial key is offered: time as a linear (and progress) structure that leaves everything behind, opens to simultaneous times that operate as a tool to situate Latin American consciousness in its pluriversality, in an ecstatic, simultaneous structure, open to affective and memorial dimensions in a being exposed in skin, heart and mind to what is different. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -
La comuna mexicana
Read moreTitle La comuna mexicana Author Bosteels, Bruno Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786078683710 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 320 Format Printed THEMA Socialismo y sistemas relacionados Synopsis Mexico, 1521; Paris, 1871. What these dates summarize are not only violent stories, marked by brutal repressions at the end of each episode, they also contain in their resistance a concern for the potential explosion of the common—an explosion whose political form would be, precisely, the commune. Beyond or here of the workers massacred 150 years ago, or the Aztecs killed 500 years ago, what this book proposes to build is a partial history of that underground tradition of communal rebellions in Mexico. Bruno Bosteels traces the survival of a social form whose aspirations, if we follow Marx's most cited texts, were embodied in the Paris Commune and verified in Russia. However, Marx also wrote about Tenochtitlan and Tlatelolco, and based on these ethnological notes, Bosteels recovers a communal tradition that remained firm throughout the colonial era and was present in the Mexican Revolution. If the calpulli was its first form, experiences such as those of Morelos, Acapulco and Edendale, to Chiapas and currently Cherán, prove that in Mexico the communal, more than a suspended time or an exceptional moment, opens an expansive form that escapes what It is thought to be immovable: an obstinacy that, through multiple isolated outbreaks, traces its path as a political ideal. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -
