Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667178 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 120 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis A collection of drawings, sketches, thoughts. Those that appear when you sit at your desk in front of a blank sheet of paper, full of expectations and the desire to do something impressive, the project of the year, your masterpiece, but it goes wrong because of nerves, you get angry, it comes out forced, nothing to do with what you imagine. The inspiring music then turns into an unbearable noise, you think: Why did I dedicate myself to this? I should have studied something else. I haven't had any water. Did I take out the trash? You get up from your chair, throw yourself on the bed and put on stripes anything to calm yourself down and get through the bad time. A giant rock on top of a tiny character. A square inside another square inside another square. That's where lucidity lies. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Toda la sangre
Read moreTitle Toda la sangre Author Esquinca, Bernardo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. 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.

The story of the unlikely bond that between two women with nothing to lose or to prove to themselves, a bond that blossoms like a lily in Lake Chapala, between sea monsters, pan dulce, and stupid, evil, or faint-hearted men (your choice, dear reader)”.
