Furia
Read moreTitle Furia Author Mendoza, Clyo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. 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 -

Mucha madre
Read moreTitle Mucha madre Author Fuentes Silva, Andrea Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764594 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 304 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Mucha madre is a collective book coordinated and edited by Andrea Fuentes. In it, eleven writers –Gabriela Jauregui, Luisa Fuentes Guaza, Clarisa Moura, Andrea Fuentes, Abril Castro, Violeta Celis, Pilar Villela, Sara Schulz, Ave Barrera, Jazmina Barrera and Gina Jaramillo– and eight illustrators –Amanda Mijangos, Sol Undurraga, Liz Meville, Rachel Levit, Gala Navarro, Sonia Pulido, María Luque and Carmen Segovia– share their ideas, experiences and practices of motherhood to reinvent it. With a language made of words and images, this book is a kaleidoscope that brings together the thoughts and feelings of women with different stories, whose reflections relate their experiences of mothering at different ages and sexual preferences or thanks to fertility treatments; they talk about raising children as single mothers or as stepmothers, they discuss the division of child care within couples, weaning, breastfeeding, and even the refusal to write about being a mother or the decision not to be one. Mucha Madre is a book that relies on diversity; each text shows that there is not just one motherhood, but many motherhoods that, in their multiplicity, call for a collective and urgent conversation in which we all – mothers or not – are part of. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Amelia Palomino

Leer mata
Read moreTitle Leer mata Author Miguel, Luna Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851171 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 168 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis At first glance, reading is a simple action: all you have to do is turn the pages while your gaze deciphers the signs written on them. But reading is also a fantastic act: it allows you to discover other thoughts and experiences, to imagine other worlds. There is something about reading that feeds the passionate obsession of the reader; unraveling the words of books transforms life. In this brief essay that plays with narration and poetry, Luna Miguel tells us how the Reader reads during the summer. Ferociously advancing through books that she finishes in days, or taking weeks to read others, she discovers that there is a relationship between the desire to read and her coquetry. It is no longer about finding out why one reads and what it is for, but about heroically abandoning oneself to the act of reading itself and giving oneself over to excess as if it were an adventure. Wearing a pink bikini or topless under the sun, the Reader seems to give up the idea that one reads in the ascetic solitude of the mind. One reads with others, with lovers and friends; Reading requires, above all, the awakening of all the senses and their pleasures. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
Cine para imaginar. La aventura que nace en Yucatán
Read moreTitle Cine para imaginar. La aventura que nace en Yucatán Author Zoraida Vásquez Beveraggi Publisher Libros para Imaginar Imprint Libros para Imaginar ISBN 9786079306182 Edition number 1ra. Publication year 2015 Pages 32 Format Printed THEMA Children’s / Teenage general interest: Literature, books and writers Synopsis The cinematograph is one of the greatest inventions of all times. The big screen still awes children and adults alike, and we never get tired of asking who and when cinema was invented or which the first movie was. Lots of books have been written answering these questions, but we were curious about finding out exactly what happened in Mexico, so we dove into ancient documents and went around asking all sorts of experts. And, by the end of our journey, we had come up with an answer that very few people know: our first fiction feature film was made in Merida, Yucatan, in 1916! foreign rights contact Ixchel Delgado Jordá E-mail info@librosparaimaginar.com
