La compañia
Read moreTitle La compañia Author Gerber Bicecci, Verónica Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764860 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 216 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis “Any unhappy life can always become a hell,” Amparo Dávila once said in a story. La Compañía, by Verónica Gerber Bicecci, looks at this warning from its mirror: “any bonanza can always become an unhappy life,” by rewriting one of the most famous stories of the Zacatecan woman. As a premonition, this story reveals the psychological, environmental and social consequences that extractive projects produce in the territories where they are located. With photographs, diagrams, testimonies, reports and interviews, as well as elements of La máquina estética by the Zacatecan visual artist Manuel Felguérez, La Compañía reconstructs the history of Nuevo Mercurio, Zacatecas, a town where an abandoned and ruined mine haunts the collective memory. Writing appears here as an extractive gesture: a formal and conceptual exploration of the processes of dispossession involved in contemporary mining. This book avoids any precise classification and confirms that there is no category that suffices to describe the work of Verónica Gerber Bicecci: rewriting, photography, narrative, chronicle, fantastic story, science fiction. Writing appears here as a critical, formal and conceptual exploration of the processes of dispossession involved in contemporary mining. The Company haunts our present and embodies that monstrous creature that confronts us with the difficult question about the future. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

With an extensive analysis of symbolic concepts and brief monographs illustrated with images from codices, this work teaches how to read the hidden meanings that the Mesoamerican peoples expressed in their pictorial, graphic, sculptural, religious and ritual expressions, and even in those related to nature and environmental phenomena, which formed part of their symbolic universe. foreign rights contact Jorge Durán E-mail jorge.duran@trillas.mx -

El libro de los dioses
Read moreTitle El libro de los dioses Author Esquinca, Bernardo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764785 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 200 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis What kind of person lets a monster lull them to sleep? In this collection of short stories – the most extensive and ambitious that its author has undertaken to date – there are questions that will put the sanity of those who delve into its pages at risk. Whether it is the mysterious message engraved on the skin of a whale, the tragedies predicted in the oil paintings of an eccentric painter, the strange and hypnotic music that emanates from a baby chair or the terrorism exercised by an environmental group that worships the god Pan, Bernardo Esquinca knows clearly where to dig to find the precise point where fantasy and horror converge. Without a doubt, this collection will alert to the extreme the senses of those readers who lost sleep with the stories of The Trilogy of Terror and those who have been left breathless by the mysteries of the Casasola Saga. Furthermore, The Book of the Gods presents a notable expansion of the borders of Bernardo Esquinca's personal universe; the renewal of an entire imaginary of the sinister. Thanks to the simple premise of this volume, the permanence of the ancient gods in the skeptical urban present, the reader can be sure that in these pages he will find the material of his future nightmares. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Te amaba y me chingaste
Read moreTitle Te amaba y me chingaste Author Nora de la Cruz Publisher Editorial NitroPress Imprint Nitro/Press ISBN 9786078256976 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 144 Format Printed THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary; Adventure / action fiction; Satirical fiction and parodies Synopsis At one of the many parties of the false society, Fosca María and Tito Lucio fall in love by accident. She is a music governess, who owns only a cat named Cucurucho and an attic; the other is a drunken marimba player, member of the illustrious Cucufato family. This 19th-century soap-opera takes place between the street gastronomy of Mexico and the customs of the old Russian aristocracy, something Chekhov could have written if he had liked tacos. Fosca and Tito remind us that no matter how much attention we have paid to Ovidio's advice, we have all loved and, yes, we have been screwed at times. foreign rights contact Lilia Barajas Martínez E-mail editorial.nitropress@gmail.com
