El cuarto jinete
Read moreTitle El cuarto jinete Author Verónica Murguía Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456165 Edition number 2 Publication year 2023 Pages 240 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis According to Juan de Patmos, the fourth rider of the apocalypse will arrive riding on a bay horse; his name will be Mortality and Hell his companion. This seemed to occur in 1348, when the bubonic plague killed over a third of the European population. With astonishing realism, El cuarto jinete immerses us in a devastated Paris, where we can witness monks addressing God with questions, flagellant fanatics blaming everything on the Jews, orphaned children who beg and steal to survive, and Abu Alí Ibn Mohamed de Ronda, wise and compassionate doctor dressed as Pedro de Hispania, with his young disciple. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

Insurrección, anarquía, revolución: una anatomía política del instantes
Read moreTitle Insurrección, anarquía, revolución: una anatomía política del instantes Author Humberto Beck Publisher El Colegio de México Imprint El Colegio de México ISBN 9786075646909 Edition number 1 Publication year 2025 Pages 239 Format Print and digital THEMA Philosophy and Religion Synopsis From 1739 onwards, the question of radical change became one of the central themes of modern politics. 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 -
Ciudad fantasma
Read moreTitle Ciudad fantasma Author Esquinca, Bernardo; Quirarte, Vicente Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667390 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 288 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Like most Mexicans, we grew up listening to ghost stories. Whether it was our grandmothers, aunts or older siblings, their conversations and anecdotes recreated a nearby world, as mysterious as it was intangible. In our formative years, literature deepened this sentimental education, because ghosts teach us that the hardest thing is to learn to let go, to let go of the things we have lost. Mexico cannot be explained without its relationship with the supernatural. If the first thing the Conquistadors heard when they set foot on these lands were tales of terror, without a doubt the last thing that will be heard before the final cataclysm, in the empty and relieved streets, will be the chorus of souls. Ghost Town is a love letter to Mexico City. To all its vicissitudes, enigmas and legends, because a city is made up of its revelations, but also by the secrets it holds. It matters little whether this set of "events" is true or false: if they feed the imagination, then they are more vital than History itself. At the end of the day, when we turn off the light and go to sleep, the facts are not as necessary as our ability to dream. We are convinced, like the authors mentioned in these pages, that ghosts - and all creatures of the night - make this world a more habitable place. Without them, reality would be too simple, too obvious. They are mirror and shadow. They show without showing themselves. They teach with wisdom: Ghosts tell us where we come from, and where we are going. Bernardo Esquinca and Vicente Quirarte. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Cartographers face the worst earthquakes in history and governments have turned away from the needs of the people.

Yo maté a un perro en Rumanía
Read moreTitle Yo maté a un perro en Rumanía Author Ulloa Donoso, Claudia Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851102 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 368 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The protagonist of this story, a Latin American woman who teaches Norwegian to immigrants, is about to reach her limit; loneliness has brought her to the brink of complete abandonment of herself. Wanting to avoid the worst, her best friend decides to take her with him to his native Romania on a trip that she finds impossible to postpone. There, among concrete blocks and neon signs, they see the tenuous bond that united them as migrants in frozen Norway fade away. Refuge in alcohol and drugs, surrounded by a language she doesn't know in a country she doesn't understand, the young language teacher will look for a way to hold on to this world. In the midst of so much darkness, she finds a brittle bark. Claudia Ulloa Donoso's first novel is a bold exploration of death as an idea and intuition, but also an incredulous contemplation of its reverse: life and its stubborn insistence. Faithful to the literary quest he undertook in Pajarito, his acclaimed collection of stories, Ulloa Donoso has written a book that, between pleasure and fever, takes language to its limits to remind us that only through it are we able to confront that definitive threshold that is the end of existence. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Con Días de tu vida, Bárbara Jacobs no sólo realiza un entrañable homenaje póstumo a la protagonista y narradora de su relato, sino que consigue atrapar, como nadie más lo ha hecho, la respiración, el tono y el ritmo de esa voz de la agonía en un lenguaje narrativo inédito. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx
