Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851447 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 152 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Here, memory is not cloudy. There are traces that have been left clean after the insatiable trampling of violence. Wherever this story takes place, the heat of the climate is tempered and what boils is the horror of prejudice. Father, mother, son, daughter, boy, girl, good, bad, yes, no: inside these pages the world struggles between dualisms and those who do not fit in there are denied, mistreated, excluded. Through everyday anecdotes we learn about the events that determined the identity of the author and various aspects of reality rarely explored in literature. Frida Cartas recalls a childhood that left no space for her name, nor for her voice, nor for her body. In some stories, an unusual tenderness prevails; in many, the crudeness of incessant abuse; In others, an inexplicable humor or a coldness that dissects events to tell us something: that the most atrocious violence can inhabit our bodies, but also the most lively and resilient courage towards life. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Historial clínico
Read moreTitle Historial clínico Author León Plascencia Ñol Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456639 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 144 Format Printed THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis A lo largo de estas páginas, la poesía adopta numerosas estrategias para abordar su electrizante materia de trabajo: el testimonio y el apunte, el listado y el álbum fotográfico, e incluso el diagnóstico, la farmacopea y el acta de defunción. El canto bien temperado es sustituido por la visión febril, y la poesía se vuelve delirio: una vez abierto el surco, metáfora no sólo del verso sino de la herida, toma distancia de él, una distancia crítica y de foco. No de otra forma se puede, ni más ni menos, arar en el vacío. Historial clínico no sólo representa el libro más personal de Plascencia Ñol; integra, además, un deslumbrante capítulo de nuestra poesía elegiaca. Historial clínico se alza con derecho propio, con la victoria pírrica de quien afirma que “el lenguaje no está dicho”. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

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 -

Isla partida
Read moreTitle Isla partida Author Tarazona, Daniela Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851287 Edition number 2 Publication year 2023 Pages 139 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In the corridors of this novel, a woman repeats and multiplies herself. She splits into two. One of them chooses to give up and escape; the other remains following her own trail. Something happens in her brain. In that trance, when her memories, dreams and fears intersect in a continuous present, they wonder if the pulse of their desire is to continue living. Isla partida is a fractal, polyhedral novel, a writing of delirium that portrays a thought beyond limits; a house of mirrors made of language. Can writing account for an overflowing mind and the creations of its electric discharges? This book is Daniela Tarazona's bravest and most risky work. A narrative and poetic experience in which body, memory and delirium come into tension to recompose the world and, therefore, the identity of the self. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
