(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

Silencio

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851393 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 184 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis After a day in the fields, all that remains is silence. It seems that nothing is happening anymore, but in the privacy of homes, in the bends of roads and on the banks of rivers, things continue to happen. Águeda wants to know where her mother’s body is, while she tries to maintain mourning in a town where organized crime keeps death in perpetual stalking. Her pain is an affront and the furious audacity with which she demands a grave deserves to be punished. As in a second birth, the young woman must transform herself in order to continue living. This new gestation gives her the possibility of perceiving the world, of listening to the stories that birds tell; of loving and experiencing the beauty that happens despite the horror. Recognized with the Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz International Poetry Prize 2017, Silence tells the story of one of the forty thousand disappearances recorded in Mexico; it tells the story of an unrecognized body among the thousands that have been left without a name. Clyo Mendoza chooses poetry to reveal what happens in the shadows and to build a tribute to the disappeared through the effort to see life in death. This writing is not only a way of embodying the unspeakable, but of offering a burial that was denied. It is the word as a mortuary rite. A flame that lights up the darkness. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

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 -

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 -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851294 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 280 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis After the 1957 earthquake expelled his family from the cosmopolitan center of Mexico City, Mauricio Guardiola spent his childhood and adolescence on the streets of Terminal Progreso, a neighborhood embedded in the semi-rural landscape of Xochimilco that seems to have crystallized the promises of a bright future into simple nostalgia for the future. In the shadow of his father—a vehement and womanizing architect, obsessed with capturing Mexican identity in his buildings—and haunted by the edifying phrases his mother sticks on the refrigerator door, Mauricio begins his sexuality, friendship, love, and the search for a vocation through a series of characters who are shaped by their obsessions. But is it possible to acquire firm convictions on shaky ground? In a territory as hesitant as Mexico City, any certainty can seem absurd. With athletic prose and a great sense of humor, Juan Villoro constructs an ironic reverse of the coming-of-age novel in which adulthood is shown as a condition of inadequacy. More than twenty years after its first publication, Almadía reissues Materia funcionable, crucible of the obsessions and literary genius of one of the most recognized and beloved writers of the Spanish language. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Una ballena es un país
Read moreTitle Una ballena es un país Author Zapata, Isabel Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667864 Edition number 2 Publication year 2020 Pages 112 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In this collection of poems, Isabel Zapata advances along the path of what I will call the ethics of consideration: the ability to take into account the experience of others and act accordingly. While some of us are barely testing this terrain—David Foster Wallace wrote a chronicle to consider lobsters and I wrote a long time ago a consideration of manatees—Isabel Zapata has immersed herself in this ethics with an entire book of animal considerations. At the beginning, regarding shark eggs, she recommends: “Consider their violent geometry,” and in this verse resonates the tiger that William Blake also considered long ago. In A Whale Is a Country, Zapata considers cetaceans, felines, rhinoceroses, pets, and extinct beasts. I see in this book by Zapata the seed of a new heterodox humanism, a humanism that, in the recognition of our animal condition, unites us with the beasts and plants that our voracity is ravaging. I recognize myself in each of these poems, because they give voice to the desire, more human than any other, of not being left alone in the world, isolated, furious and repressed.
