    THEMA Agnosticism & atheism
    Synopsis If God exists, why doesn't he make himself present in a tangible way, why doesn't he act and intervene in an effective and evident way to bring about all the positive things he wishes to promote in humanity? This question contains within itself a genuine and fruitful search for God, whether it comes from an atheistic, agnostic or believing conviction, or from those who “do not succeed” in believing in God even though they ardently desire it. It is a cry that is expressed, explicitly or in the most intimate of many, as a sometimes dramatic claim: “God, why don't you give me the faith I desire so much?

    Synopsis Through fascinating characters of Mexican History, among which the father of the author is also present, Zermeño drives us into the depths of the old XXth century Mexico, where violence and machismo live next to the fragility and vulnerability of emotions. Dead, absence, lost and the never ending search for the father figure are fundamental subjects in this carefully written novel. This book truly showcases the complexity of Mexican identity, but also, our identity as human beings.

    THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary
    Synopsis El paisaje de Monclova y sus alrededores, desiertos, carreteras, casas viejas y ruinosas son los escenarios de los cinco cuentos que conforman Suelten a los perros. Una y otra vez, sus personajes encuentran en lo cotidiano una puerta abierta a los conflictos, pero ante ellos sólo la pasividad, la renuncia y la huida les están dadas. Mínimos héroes trágicos de pequeñas derrotas que se vuelven definitivas, la extraordinaria tensión narrativa y el largo y profundo aliento de estos relatos de gran fuerza les dan una dimensión universal.

    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.

    THEMA Language and Linguistics
    Synopsis This book is a journey through the loanwords from many languages that have enriched Spanish throughout its existence. It is a tour of ten languages that have left a profound lexical, and sometimes grammatical, mark on Spanish. Contact is the natural condition of human beings and many languages are enriched by it with loanwords. Any language is a sum of genes and mimetic events, because having language and speaking are genetically underpinned activities and are also socially and culturally conditioned by secular and even millenary heritage.

    THEMA Collective accounts of events
    Synopsis As an agrarian martyr, Zapata became the spiritual leader of the peasants in Mexico. Part history, part legend, their fight went beyond the acts to keep alive the defense of the lands and the rights achieved. However, its symbolism, like that of the Revolution, was adopted by the State to legitimize a system of abuses that contravened the achievements of the armed struggle and led to new movements in defense of workers and peasants.

    THEMA Fiction and Related items
    Synopsis The main idea of ​​Peces del aire altisísimo is that poetry, as a vital impulse and ultimate vocation of a life, is not restricted exclusively to the texts of those who construct it with their incessant work. On the contrary, this inclination towards the construction of new corridors and rooms of our home that is language, extends into the daily life of every poet. Gilberto Owen, Carlos Pellicer, Luis Cernuda, Rubén Bonifaz Núño, Alí ​​Chumacero and Efraín Huerta are some of the poets whose life and work are woven together by Vicente Quirarte in this book, to show that the daily choices, the poet's own habits and obsessions, as well as his vices and virtues, are not only the inexorable consequence of his personality, but extensions of his literary work itself; expansions of the prodigious worlds that they built with their pen. Thanks to the erudition of a committed and passionate reader, but also with the closeness and intimacy of a friend, Quirarte offers wonderful portraits of characters whose words have already found their place as the pinnacles of Mexican literature.
