Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078486779 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 184 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In what is undoubtedly his most exciting chronicle, Juan Villoro tells how he was able to compare the intensity of two of the most terrible earthquakes that Latin America has suffered: the 1985 earthquake in Mexico City and the 2010 earthquake in Santiago de Chile. Convinced that these disasters should be told with the most representative voices involved, Villoro took the stories of his fellow earthquake survivors and built a concert of impressions that is not lacking in suspense or absurdity. “After reading this heartfelt and vibrant book, one might think that the author did not tell the whole truth: 8.8 was written with fear still in the skin, and perhaps in that secret lies its extraordinary power.” -Leonardo Tarifeño foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Los culpables
Read moreTitle Los culpables Author Villoro, Juan Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667123 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 145 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis When I started working with Almadía, almost three decades ago, they already conceived their collections as a gift for readers. Los Culpables was the first book I designed for them, in 2007. I thought of a graphic proposal that would surprise: the challenge was to bring the colorful, tactile, and artisanal atmosphere of Oaxaca to paper. I knew I had the opportunity to do something different in terms of graphic design. I read the book and had a lot of fun; the stories are short and have an exceptional sense of humor. Talking with the team, we agreed that the emblematic image on the cover should come from the phrase “It was the iguana’s fault,” which opens the fifth story in the book, “The Mayan Twilight.” The double cover of Los Culpables started a double game that survives to this day. At that time, Juan Villoro commented that just as the iguana changes its skin, Almadía’s books are skinnable and the shirt is a second skin that reveals the secret image on the cover. I took a risk with the design because Almadía was open to change. Perhaps the shirt die is the most daring one we have ever printed: the reptile was too big and in the first edition the “second skin” was very fragile. Since then, this work has been reprinted and reissued many times, becoming the one with the most readers in the history of the publishing house. From the first reprint, I modified the design and added a branch that runs through the body of the sauropsid to give greater resistance and strength to the cardboard. To celebrate its seventh anniversary, Almadía published a commemorative edition of this same work in large format, hardcover and illustrated by me. These drawings are tangential glances at Juan’s funny stories. It seemed to me a cacophonous gesture to bring images that are described in the story to the graphic, so I preferred to represent scenes that perhaps could have happened, turning the images into satellites of the author’s narrative universe. In this third edition and eighth reprint, the emblematic lizard lives more discreetly on the cover, and the fact that I wrote the little text you are reading right now is also, without a doubt, the fault of the iguana.

Los niños de paja
Read moreTitle Los niños de paja Author Bernardo Esquinca Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667130 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 136 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In August 2003, I made one of the most important decisions of my life: moving from Guadalajara to Mexico City. I was fleeing a marital breakup. I thought the change of scenery would give me distance and perspective on my situation, but it ended up giving me something more vital: a stimulating environment for creation, for a type of narrative that I had been exploring, linked to the supernatural and police, but which found an ideal setting in Mexico City. Friends and editors began to ask me for stories for supplement magazines; without intending to, I had a volume of stories in progress. When I reviewed them, I realized another unplanned factor: the protagonists of my stories were widowed or separated men. It was clear that I was looking to exorcise my divorce through horror literature. The equation seemed valid to me, so I decided to complete the book with that approach. The result was Los niños de paja, a project that marked the beginning of my close relationship with Almadía publishing house. The forensic entomologist in “The Secret Life of Insects” rejects science and tries to solve his wife’s murder with a medium; the writer of “The God of the Pool” travels to paradise to discover the greatest atrocity that a group of married couples can commit, and the heartbroken man in “Love Has No Cure” puts himself in the hands of a fortune teller in search of a miracle that will save his relationship. All of them, along with the rest of the beings that inhabit the nine stories included in these pages, have one objective: never turn their backs on darkness, but embrace it; throw themselves into the abyss and explore it, because reality is as banal as it is unbearable. Time passes and I still agree with that premise. Bernardo Esquinca foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

It does not pursue an encyclopedic purpose, but rather demonstrates that, even in the age of academic hyperspecialization, comprehensive Mesoamerican studies are not impossible. A fundamental contribution of this new proposal is to promote concepts that do not come from theology and the history of religions but from indigenous practices themselves. Terms such as polytheism, cosmology, mythology, sacrifice and prayer should be questioned, if Mesoamerican religions are to be understood in their own relational logic." foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Hers are the kingdom, the power, the glory: She could swim in money, since she is married to a powerful businessman. She is beautiful and refined, an example of good taste and the soul of the parties. 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
