Bach always remained in his country, where he had twenty children. Handel, on the other hand, made his fame and fortune in England, without ever marrying. Both lived long and prolific lives, tied by a common ending: blindness, caused by the clumsy intervention of the same apprentice eye surgeon. Through a medical-biographical assessment of the lives of these composers, the answers to various questions about genius and creativity are revealed. foreign rights contact Alejandro Cruz Atienza E-mail a.cruzatienza@colnal.mx -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764723 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 320 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis I will never forget the sound of the drums of the shell collectors at night, while I tried to fall asleep in an old building on Donceles Street. It seemed like a sinister warning: beneath there is a city that beats and breathes, with gods who have not died; let us pay tribute to them, because one day that world will return... It is impossible to sleep next to the Templo Mayor without being influenced by those ancient stones, by the voices that whisper from the ruins during the early hours of the morning. My mind began to imagine a story to ward off the insomnia that this invocation to the ancient and mysterious side of the city caused me. I wanted to understand where we come from, and why it is difficult to reconcile ourselves with our pre-Hispanic origins; especially with the human sacrifices practiced by the Aztecs. This novel unites past and present in the same secret plot: the obsidian knives that ripped out hearts, the homeless people who swarm the streets of the Center, the colonial buildings with tezontle facades, the abandoned concrete buildings on the edge of large avenues, the sensationalist publications and their language of violence, the archaeological windows that tell of a lost splendor; a riddle whose main character is Mexico City, the place where any situation is possible. Archaeologists turned detectives, vagabonds dressed in human skins, secret tunnels and catacombs under the asphalt of the city, and a ritual murderer with an apocalyptic mission. All the Blood is a thriller about the universe of myths and the realm of the “real”; both are needed because they feed off each other. In the middle are we, puppets of forces that we sense and prefer to ignore. Until the sound of the drums reaches our door.

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? foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667192 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 128 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis I once had a company (I was the boss and had only one employee) dedicated solely to publishing a literary magazine. One of the things I did frequently was fill out power of attorney letters. At that time I went out to buy them at the stationery store, until one day it occurred to me to capture it on my computer and, when necessary, print it. Towards the end of 2007, in a moment of leisure, I reread that document that almost all of us signed without fully understanding the legal terms it contained (“dilatory and peremptory exceptions,” “auctions,” “interlocutory and definitive matters,” etc.) and I decided to compose a love “poem” with those words as a solitary game without the purpose of publication. In June 2008, I was invited to a writers’ meeting in San Luis Potosí. To conclude, we participants were asked to read something from our work. Each one would have a maximum of three minutes. Of course, the poets had plenty to choose from. A writer of short fiction could have read his complete work, but we, the narrators, were left defenseless. Then I remembered that the “poem” entitled Carta poder was on my computer. I transcribed it on a sheet of hotel letterhead and read it. Some of my colleagues liked the game and there was even someone who asked me to give them the manuscript. Back in Mexico City, I asked myself: And who is she, the recipient? From that question was born Poesía eras tú. Francisco Hinojosa foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
