Leyendas de todo México. Aparecidos y fantasmas
Read moreTitle Leyendas de todo México. Aparecidos y fantasmas Author Homero Adame Martínez Publisher Editorial Trillas, S. A. de C. V. Imprint Trillas ISBN 9786071725363 Edition number 1 Publication year 2016 Pages 80 Format Printed THEMA Children’s, Teenage Synopsis This is a selection of the most frequently told legends of ghostly apparitions from all over Mexico. Some of the legends are the product of the author's many travels throughout the country: demons, weeping women and ghosts come to life in abandoned houses, haciendas, convents and churches, theatres, tunnels and cemeteries, lakes, rivers and uninhabited areas. These places, because of their antiquity, their state of ruin or their silence, are the ideal setting for the creation of stories of mystery and terror such as those that the reader will find in this book. foreign rights contact Jorge Durán E-mail jorge.duran@trillas.mx -
Relatos lumbung
Read moreTitle Relatos lumbung Author C. Brown, Harriet; Aiyub, Azhari; Alberdi, Uxue; Judar, Cristina; Khoury, Nesrine; Aguilar Gil, Yásnaya Elena; Panashe, chigumadzi; Sanyal, Mithu Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851072 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 192 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis “Minga” in many South American countries, “tequio” in Mexico, auzolan in Euskal Herria, andecha in Asturias, mutirão in Brazil, Ubuntu in various African countries, gadugi in Cherokee communities, talkoot in Finland, guanxi in China, fa’zaa in Arabic or lumbung in the Philippines; as diverse as human societies are the ways of naming collective work, that which is done with an eye to the common good and not to individual accumulation or competition. Within the framework of documenta 15, a five-year exhibition of international contemporary art, eight publishing houses from around the world have cooperated to offer this volume that brings together voices from different latitudes that, through writing, explore the experiences of being-in-common in their respective contexts. These pages narrate the individual sacrifice that militancy demands; the nostalgia for a way of life interrupted by war; the whirlwind of temporalities that the collective memory of slavery can produce when invoked by textuality; but, above all, the festive spirit that the gathering of bodies, rhythms and energies with a view to a common benefit produces. This is a collective book, as is any vital experience worth living. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
Todo lo que amamos y dejamos atrás
Read moreTitle Todo lo que amamos y dejamos atrás Author Elisa de Gortari Publisher Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial Imprint Alfaguara ISBN 9786073851152 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 296 Format Printed THEMA Fiction: Traditional stories, myths and fairy tales Synopsis Grijalva is a reporter in a world that has gone backwards. 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 -

La compañia
Read moreTitle La compañia Author Gerber Bicecci, Verónica Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764860 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 216 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis “Any unhappy life can always become a hell,” Amparo Dávila once said in a story. La Compañía, by Verónica Gerber Bicecci, looks at this warning from its mirror: “any bonanza can always become an unhappy life,” by rewriting one of the most famous stories of the Zacatecan woman. As a premonition, this story reveals the psychological, environmental and social consequences that extractive projects produce in the territories where they are located. With photographs, diagrams, testimonies, reports and interviews, as well as elements of La máquina estética by the Zacatecan visual artist Manuel Felguérez, La Compañía reconstructs the history of Nuevo Mercurio, Zacatecas, a town where an abandoned and ruined mine haunts the collective memory. Writing appears here as an extractive gesture: a formal and conceptual exploration of the processes of dispossession involved in contemporary mining. This book avoids any precise classification and confirms that there is no category that suffices to describe the work of Verónica Gerber Bicecci: rewriting, photography, narrative, chronicle, fantastic story, science fiction. Writing appears here as a critical, formal and conceptual exploration of the processes of dispossession involved in contemporary mining. The Company haunts our present and embodies that monstrous creature that confronts us with the difficult question about the future. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Read moreTitle Demasiado tarde para ser otra cosa Author Cecilia Magaña Publisher Editorial NitroPress Imprint Nitro/Press ISBN 9786078805266 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 176 Format Printed THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis “Ginny Moon flees from the past and lives the present knowing that the future does not exist. This anti-heroine breaks into our literature in a fast-paced, unpredictable and fun narrative exercise; a tour de force where women take the reins of everything until the last consequences: revenge, love, death. The story of the unlikely bond that between two women with nothing to lose or to prove to themselves, a bond that blossoms like a lily in Lake Chapala, between sea monsters, pan dulce, and stupid, evil, or faint-hearted men (your choice, dear reader)”.
