La octava plaga
Read moreTitle La octava plaga Author Esquinca, Bernardo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764488 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 232 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis When the idea for The Eighth Plague began to float around in my head, one thing was clear: its protagonist would not be a conventional detective. I came from the world of journalism, where I trained as a writer for many years; the vicissitudes of reporters and the atmosphere of newsrooms were familiar to me, so it seemed like an act of congruence for Casasola to have that profession. However, I never worked in crime fiction, something I would have loved; having my journalist in charge of covering the police beat was a settling of scores: that, among other things, is what literature is for. I also knew that I wanted to mix genres: reality has never been enough for me to put together the stories I want to tell. Although it was a rarity in the tradition of detective novels, especially in the one made in Mexico, my novel would fuse a police plot with the supernatural. The Motel Killer, the fantastic entity that Casasola faces, behaves like a praying mantis: she decapitates her lovers during sexual intercourse. Finding out why she – and apparently the rest of humanity – acts like an insect is the subject of a mystery with apocalyptic overtones. But there was something else: Casasola had to look like me and, therefore, he would be an exile. He had to go from the culture section of the newspaper where he worked to the crime section: a universe unknown to both him and me. A path that we would travel and discover together. In the end, we had such a good time that The Eighth Plague became a saga. Mexico City is the ideal setting because, as we already know, in its streets and nooks and crannies the strange and chilling are part of the landscape.

Algunas de estas cosas son ciertas
Read moreTitle Algunas de estas cosas son ciertas Author González, Vicky Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851782 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 200 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The protagonists of these stories are fragile men, unsatisfied wives, insecure and violent husbands, daughters who do not want to be mothers, submissive women on the verge of rebelling, misogynistic boys, girls who yearn for an independent life. Traveling between Mexico and Spain, between Monterrey and Barcelona, Some of These Things Are True portrays with a great deal of black humor the ridiculousness of social conventions, the asymmetry of romantic relationships, the fears and traumas that dominate us, uncontrollable passions, everyday machismo and classism. In a country accustomed to euphemisms, in a society addicted to secrets and in favor of concealment, Vicky González says the things that many of us think but do not dare to say, which is disturbing and, above all, hilarious. Twenty stories that reveal a writer with unusual acuity and extreme sensitivity to expose the lies, pretenses and hypocrisies of our time. There is only one thing more exciting than discovering a great writer: having seen her mature. I have been reading these stories for years, witnessing how this book was slowly taking shape, steeped in irony, aged in barrels of irreverence and tenderness. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Sue Zurita transports us to the Tabasco of the eighties: thanks to her detailed descriptions we can enjoy the typical foods and sweets of the region, walk among the ceiba trees, listen to the birds singing, feel the warm summer wind. This novel has the power to evoke the days that will not return, those in which we enjoyed the embrace of grandparents, the music of our parents, childhood games, the first love. Sometimes the memory of happy days is only the impulse for a new beginning... foreign rights contact Quetzalli de la Concha Oswaldo Muñoz

Otro día…
Read moreTitle Otro día… Author Gerber Bicecci, Verónica Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667093 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 104 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In 1977, the Voyager probes were launched into outer space. Inside, the Golden Record carries sounds and images of life on Earth, waiting to be found and deciphered. On the other hand, a hundred years ago, José Juan Tablada published Un día… (poemas synthetics), an advanced and subtle artefact composed of haikus and illustrations made by the poet, in which nature is shown as the muse of avant-garde writing. Simple as a gesture, but complex in its implications and references, Otro día… (poemas synthetics), by Verónica Gerber Bicecci, is an exercise in crossings and rewritings that contrasts with the figure of the muse to make a sharp testimony of our present and a deep questioning of the future: a time that may have ceased to be ours. At the same time, it allows us to think about what kind of memory we leave about ourselves and imagine poetry as a satellite, a vestige that could be interpreted by a new civilization. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
Furia

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764778 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 264 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In a desert dotted with war-ravaged villages, two deserters from opposing sides discover a dark truth about their family. Vicente Barrera, a thread seller who once went from town to town conquering women and planting his children in them, spends his last years tied up in a room turned into an angry dog. María has found in Salvador a love that, so deep, seems to dissolve them into each other and mix their dreams as if concocted by the same mind. It is in that territory that the characters' destinies become intertwined, that their wounds are inherited and bleed out. In that clean landscape where fury and desire find their way, a story is told about children – that of their bodies and affections – but also about the women who surround them: mothers, lovers, companions. After being awarded the Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz International Poetry Prize, Clyo Mendoza writes a novel of extraordinary beauty, where language embarks on a hallucinatory journey through eroticism, the transitions of consciousness and the possibility that different beings can inhabit the same body. Through a journey through madness, Furia offers a moving questioning of love, violence and the suffering that it brings with it. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764709 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 200 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Nefando revolves around a video game from the Deep Web; a digital enigma that has caused a scandal for containing images that dislocate all morals. As an investigation, the novel is built with testimonies from those involved in the creation of the game: a Spanish programmer, two Mexican literature students and three Ecuadorian brothers, all living in the same apartment in Barcelona. In this way, different plots unravel to reveal stories whose wounds remain raw: nonconformity with biological gender, an abusive father, an overprotective mother. As a complement to this complex narrative framework, the writing of a pornographic novel by one of the characters finds a place in Nefando: in it, two sadomasochistic teenagers –Diego and Eduardo– find in Nella, a new student at the boarding school where they live, the accomplice and challenge of their desire. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

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 -

The Great World Civil War, considered the most devastating in history, buried the legendary quests of the Elenion in fear and blood. The Paranormals stopped pursuing their soulmates to confront humans for their right to exist. Despite the disadvantage in numbers, they won; but they lost much in the process. When humans finally accepted treaties of peace and equality, everyone returned to a strange normality of governments and began to accept each other among different species without noticing that a vital piece for their existence was missing: Love. As the years passed, the small fragments of real love faded like flames in the rain. The Paranormals abandoned the search for their Elenion, and humans began to treat marriage as a commercial transaction. They say that hope is the first thing to appear when everything is lost. What happens when you don't know you've lost it? Perhaps a single drop of hope is all it takes to restore faith." foreign rights contact Adriana Magdalena Silva E-mail direccion.general@casaeditorialtori.com -

Shadows of Rock is, thus, less a reasoned catalog of bands, singles, and singers than the emotional jukebox of an era and a generation marked by the birth of that thunderous mythology of chords and screams that prevails to this day. foreign rights contact Déborah Holtz E-mail deborah@trilce.com.mx -

From then on, a constellation of figures and movements began to form with a vision of political change based on the idea of a sudden interruption in the continuity of the established order, that is, of an instantaneous present that suspends the usual flow of time. This work offers an intellectual history of the language of instantaneous time by exploring three figures representative of the notion of sudden rupture in modern political thought: insurrection, anarchy, and revolution. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

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 -
