In history there are only rare moments when certain works of art transform the world. Located in an instance of transition, “The Origin of the Work of Art” is an oasis, a fertile place, which allows Heidegger to overcome a project that begins to desertify, Being and Time, to take the necessary impulses to revivify his thought, the philosophy of Ereignis.

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851140 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 384 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Like a late winter blizzard, memories rush into the mind of Francisco (Frankie) Goldberg, the protagonist of this story, as he travels by train from New York to Boston, his hometown. Forced to return to North America as a result of fierce political persecution, the marked distance he has built up with his family suddenly vanishes. Now he goes to meet his mother, his sister, an interrupted school love, and also the scars that growing up in the American northeast leaves on a child of a Russian Jewish father and a Guatemalan Catholic mother. Moving, funny, and disturbing in equal measure, Monkey Boy unfolds a network of temporalities that makes evident the impossibility of an immutable past, while highlighting the omissions with which we construct the stories we tell about ourselves. In this novel, Francisco Goldman has written a brilliant reflection and a clear x-ray of the individual and collective identity of a country that, like many, is inhabited by people of multiple geographic and cultural origins. But above all, this book is a celebration of female strength, without which overcoming the most turbulent childhoods would be practically impossible. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Read moreTitle Colonialidad, género y democracia Author Mendoza, Breny Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786078898077 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 264 Format Printed THEMA Colonization Synopsis The essays collected in this book are constituted from conversations that the author has with different traditions of decolonial thought from both the North and the South. They bring into dialogue authors and currents of thought that are usually geographically and linguistically distanced, or that have been artificially separated to place Northern Europe as the only reference in the history of coloniality. In the process, not only theories and concepts, belief systems and prejudices that have contaminated the story of colonization are demystified, but the self-narratives that Europeans have woven of their own history are also questioned. Coloniality, gender and democracy addresses themes that revolve around the author's central concerns, such as the origins of democracy and the modern-State in the colonial fact, the role of gender in the constitution of colonial power and the contributions of decolonial feminism. especially from its indigenous side, which, according to Mendoza, offers one of the most complex and subversive theories of Western feminism. It also explores issues such as the Anthropocene or the ecological crisis, and the way in which they are conceived in areas such as postmodernism, posthumanism and various decolonial theories. To conclude, a feminist manifesto is presented as a way to move from critical theory to action, from despair to decolonial hope. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -

Retratos de familia
Read moreTitle Retratos de familia Author José Eugenio Sánchez Publisher José Javier Villarreal Imprint ISBN 9791387604011 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 136 Format Printed THEMA Biography, Literature and Literary studies Synopsis Family Portraits is a tapestry of stories, images, and traces that reveal a past that merges with a present perceived on a shifting surface and a heavy sky about to fall. Perhaps this is not entirely true. So it is a family album that may well come up against the ruined walls of a Roman cemetery. But the light and temperature can demarcate a social environment, a civitas attentive to the upheavals and inequalities that situate and condition us. foreign rights contact María Fuentes E-mail edicion@vasoroto.com -

El vértigo horizontal
Read moreTitle El vértigo horizontal Author Villoro, Juan Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764761 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 456 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Convinced that Mexico City may not be the most advisable region to live in, but also that it is so intricate and exciting that it is impossible to leave it, Juan Villoro proposes this book written from the devotion of the recalcitrant and amazed urbanite that unfolds like an infinite puzzle: the shortcuts, the wrestling movies, the national heroes, the Tepiteño commerce, the government paperwork, the enigma of the tire repair shops, the countless crowds, the consumption of chili, the ancestral temples. The author also narrates certain autobiographical passages, such as the last walk with his grandmother or the memory of the neighborhood of abandoned houses where he grew up. With an attentive gaze and a firm pulse, Villoro unfolds as a journalist, passerby, pen buyer, nostalgic adult, responsible father, emergency brigade member, and offers us a testimony of the multiple adventures that the city has in store for each and every one of its members. Whether from his own experience or through listening to and investigating other people's realities, Juan Villoro composes a great fresco of the endearing and eternal chaos that makes up the country's capital. The space in which nothing fits anymore, but nothing is ever left over: Chilangópolis. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
