Serie de circunstancias posibles en torno a una mujer mexicana de clase trabajadora
Read moreTitle Serie de circunstancias posibles en torno a una mujer mexicana de clase trabajadora Author Segura, Yolanda Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851331 Edition number 2 Publication year 2023 Pages 80 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In the space that poetry opens between the flow of everyday words, a series of possible circumstances surrounding a working-class Mexican woman, she analyzes one of the core concepts of the capitalist economy. What is the “middle class”? Who is part of it? Is there a way to describe it, to count it? Are its members defined by the calculation of their income, what they own or dream of? By their future projects? While reflecting on these questions, Yolanda Segura tells the story of Eloísa, a woman born in the 1940s who has worked since she was very young. With a stable job and a secure salary, she soon faces the possibility of getting married and having a family. She wants to guarantee herself a prosperous and happy existence. Will it be enough to have a husband, to work her day, to obtain a mortgage loan? Why does the economic growth of a person or a country always happen in the future and never in the present? Do financial benefits increase social well-being? In the midst of inflation and wage cuts, of crisis and debt, how will she manage her time, desires and affections? Are there other ways to invent a livable life for a working woman? For Yolanda Segura, a poem is a form of resistance, a way of cancelling the economic value of language. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Si ya está muerto, sonría
Read moreTitle Si ya está muerto, sonría Author Andrés Acosta (antologador) Publisher SM México Imprint Gran Angular ISBN 9786072424005 Edition number 3 Publication year 2022 Pages 160 Format Printed THEMA Children’s, Teenage Synopsis If a lady is walking down the street and she falls down shockingly, one should not laugh out loud, except if one is Mexican. André Breton once said that Mexico was the country of choice for black humor. He was not exaggerating. And contrary to what they say out there, literature also proves him right: from José T. de Cuéllar to Jorge Ibargüengoitia, to mention the classics, several national writers have successfully resisted the onslaught of "serious literature". foreign rights contact Estela Ruiz Torres E-mail estela.ruiz.torres@grupo-sm.com -

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 -
