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 -

No fue penal
Read moreTitle No fue penal Author Villoro, Juan Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851508 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 104 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis It Wasn't a Penalty offers two versions of the same play. In dramatic fashion, this move brings together two friends whom fate has turned into enemies. El Tanque is the manager of a team that will be relegated to the second division if they lose the match. From his small prison as a technical director, he faces something more than the score: his future and his past are at stake. With his throat torn to pieces, he fights against the clumsiness of his own players and the decisions of the referee. Meanwhile, he is observed by Valeriano Fuentes, the former friend with whom he shared a tragedy that changed their lives and who is now in charge of the implacable justice of the VAR. For years, Juan Villoro, winner of the Manuel Vázquez Montalbán International Award for Dios es redondo, has written chronicles and essays on football. This time he uses two complementary narratives to tell a story about sporting passion, brotherhood and rivalries, and to explore the theatrical condition of those who intervene in the game from off the field. Controversial plays depend on who watches them. It Wasn't a Penalty brings to light a disconcerting condition of sport: what is legitimate for some is an insult for others. The match is stopped and the action is reviewed by the VAR. What will be the verdict? Two very different stories explain this disturbing moment of decision. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
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 -

The search of the characters in Picnic is not moved by a romantic vision, but by a desire to take from life what it owes to a girl: a little sex without falling in love, participating in a rock concert brawl getting out unscathed, or live as a functioning alcoholic without being judged. foreign rights contact Lilia Barajas Martínez E-mail editorial.nitropress@gmail.com -

While she puts the objects back in their place like it is some kind of ritual, a piece of paper falls from among the clothes. It appears to be a letter... This is the story of Elena, who, immersed in deep sadness over the death of her sister, embarks on a journey that allows her to heal and get to know herself. In the midst of legends and tragic stories of heartbreak, she discovers in Liza's diary a whirlwind of secrets and the truth about her sudden death. foreign rights contact Oswaldo Muñoz, Quetzalli de la Concha E-mail oswaldo.munoz@penguinrandomhouse.com; quetzalli.delaconcha@penguinrandomhouse.com -
El día que apagaron la luz
Read moreTitle El día que apagaron la luz Author Fabbri, Camila Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. 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 -
