Isla partida
Read moreTitle Isla partida Author Tarazona, Daniela Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851287 Edition number 2 Publication year 2023 Pages 139 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In the corridors of this novel, a woman repeats and multiplies herself. She splits into two. One of them chooses to give up and escape; the other remains following her own trail. Something happens in her brain. In that trance, when her memories, dreams and fears intersect in a continuous present, they wonder if the pulse of their desire is to continue living. Isla partida is a fractal, polyhedral novel, a writing of delirium that portrays a thought beyond limits; a house of mirrors made of language. Can writing account for an overflowing mind and the creations of its electric discharges? This book is Daniela Tarazona's bravest and most risky work. A narrative and poetic experience in which body, memory and delirium come into tension to recompose the world and, therefore, the identity of the self. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

A deeply rooted custom and inextricable usage that speaks to the Mexican confusion about the uses of affection, the "encarguito"—thing and message, object and symbol—is an elaborate form of nightmare. The choice of the object to be commissioned falls within what in the theory of Mexican identity is known as "ocurrencia" or "detallito" (little detail), a phenomenon that consists of applying ingenuity to the meticulous concoction of a nonsense. foreign rights contact Déborah Holtz E-mail deborah@trilce.com.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667468 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 256 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The selection of stories that make up La piel insomne is, in the author’s words, a kind of director’s version, a settling of scores with certain texts written and published between 1987 and 1993, and which were originally included in the books Donde la piel es tu tibio silencio, Páginas para una siesta húmeda and Insomnios del otro lado. In addition, the final section, “Bonus tracks”, brings together five stories that appeared in periodical publications or anthologies, but which have not been collected in books. Montiel Figueiras dared to venture down the paths of revision and rewriting, to reorder the index of a book that tells us about his first years as a narrator, a time when he already demonstrated a writing fluency and a literary ability that have led him to occupy a prominent place among the authors of his generation. These stories display the prose that characterizes the writer's work: a sinuous reality plagued by labyrinths, threatening or sensual presences that threaten to change the world, plots that lead us to discover the darkness that inhabits every thing and being that inhabits the universe. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764754 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 256 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In 2020, during the months of the most intense lockdown, social media was filled with videos in which wild animals were seen roaming the deserted streets of various urban centers. These scenes, similar to the enigmatic films of Luis Buñuel, were a fleeting reminder of the lives despised by the whirlwind of economic progress; a year after they were captured, the summer of 2021 was characterized by heat waves and fires that broke all known records. Without a doubt, humanity's responsibility with respect to its environment and the beings with whom it shares it becomes a topic of urgent reflection. In the last volume of this philosophical history of animals, some of the most current and radical proposals on the animal question are problematized by prominent Latin American thinkers, as an effort to detonate and enrich this urgent debate. Within these pages the reader will find reflections on the famous encounter between Friedrich Nietzsche and a horse on the outskirts of Turin; a deep elaboration on the proposal of animal becoming in Gilles Deleuze; the intersections between feminist and animalist proposals of the philosopher Rosi Braidotti; a very interesting reading of the literary work of the writer J. M. Coetzee; among other equally stimulating and necessary texts. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Fears turn over ourselves, our destructive capacity and the limits of what is allowed because we are convinced that an optimistic perspective of progress is now incompatible with a viable future. More than ever, we need to look for evil in our actions and their consequences. Illness, aging and death constitute the most fearsome of the trilogies for human beings. These stories place us in the main characters' perspectives and awaken our survival instincts to remind us that the monster is just around the corner. foreign rights contact Oswaldo Muñoz, Quetzalli de la Concha E-mail oswaldo.munoz@penguinrandomhouse.com; quetzalli.delaconcha@penguinrandomhouse.com -
