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 -

To change the correlation of forces, lawfare or judicial war has entered the scene, an apparently democratic mechanism in accordance with the law, for which that undermine the power, image and chances of re-election of the left's leaders. Little is said, however, about the origin of lawfare as a military strategy, framed in a broad-spectrum war, today called hybrid war, which seeks, through the combination of judicial, media, political or economic operations, the reconfiguration of hemispheric geopolitics. If in previous decades the blows The classic state policies served to prevent the ruling left from deploying its political agenda from the institutions or even occupying them, today lawfare exercises the same function, but taking refuge in legality and maintaining democratic appearances. We are witnessing, then, the paradoxical demolition of the rule of law in the name of law. But this threat is not limited to Latin American territory, which, as so many times before, has continued to be a testing laboratory. Once the "effectiveness" of this new system tool has been confirmed, what prevents it from being applied in other countries? And there are very close signs that point in this direction. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -

Silencio
Read moreTitle Silencio Author Mendoza, Clyo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. 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 -
La muerte de la lengua inglesa

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667802 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 112 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Myriam Moscona enunciates the death of the English language through twenty-nine poems written around the death of artists whose work was written in English – such as Ernest Hemingway, William Carlos Williams, Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allan Poe, Agatha Christie, Lord Byron, Leonard Cohen, Dylan Thomas, Elizabeth Bishop and Anne Sexton, among others. The author investigates language with the curiosity and wit that distinguish her, to find in words their powerful plasticity to create sounds and images. Beyond the playful composition that distances the poems from funereal solemnity, there is something disconcerting: why would the English language die? If English is the most widely spoken language in the world, the lingua franca of communications, business and science, what would have to happen – besides the death of its most excellent poets – for the English language to disappear? foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
Gente del mundo
Read moreTitle Gente del mundo Author Alberto Chimal Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074453416 Edition number 1 Publication year 2014 Pages 122 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis It could be that Gente del mundo is merely a residue, a ruin, what remains of a myriad of civilizations. A handful of short texts, where in a crucial gesture a whole culture is sketched. A collection of illustrations that produce an allegoric image of an entire population. Alberto Chimal is Calvino’s and Borges’ best reader of the latest years because instead of admiring them in quote form, he focuses on reimagining. In an environment oversaturated with fidelity to the press, this book shows up and refreshes the literary scene. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

With her dry body and her mother's voice in mind, she manages to lick her wounds and return home. Her way back will be a viacrucis, the arrival, a blessing. All this, the true beginning. This body of mine is an honest and scatterbraines novel, full of humor and music, love and sisterhood, that still leaves space for pain and hatred. It is full of drugs, danger and hypocrisy; of oil injections, sequins and high heels; of sex on street corners, hotels and virtual spaces.

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667970 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 160 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis What happens when love, intelligence, genius and poetry are not enough? Where do you run to when it seems that what you are looking for is to return? Through scenes of neat simplicity, Jorge Volpi turns the darkness of private life into the light of public life, showing us that severity and sadness hide behind the smallest acts. Volpi dramatizes the intense and stormy relationship between Sylvia Plath, Ted Hughes, Assia and David Wevill and invites the reader to draw back the curtain that covers the strength and weakness of two brilliant women who, because of the same illness, ended their lives in the same way. Las agujas dementes explores in each act the paths of life, poetry and suicide. In this new installment, Volpi once again shows us the versatility of his writing, where each word takes on an incendiary character more than ever. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx
