    THEMA Social & cultural history
    Synopsis The approach to consumption as ritual greatly expands the understanding of society itself, as it offers reflections on the mechanisms of transfer of meaning from the cultural and socially constituted world to individuals, through privileged vectors of signs such as the fashion system, the advertising ecology and the soap opera. To conclude, the text deals with the limits of consumption, an issue that opens the work, reaching the understanding that there are clear limits to consumption, which are civic, moral and affective.

    Synopsis In Hukuméiji, a town located in the north of Colombia, near the Don Diego River and the Caribbean Sea, the characters in the four stories that make up this novel are stripped of parts of their body—their tongue, hands, legs, eyes—they suffer the death of their loved ones, and they have even been stripped of their land or crops; that is, they suffer the mutilation of the different parts that make them up. Thus, the body becomes a system to explain loss, so that the author weaves a writing that embodies the pain and ravages of violence exercised by power anywhere in the world. Likewise, nature—present in the stories through the jungle, plants, crops, or torrential rains—links human bodies with the territory: violence is executed on bodies and land in an analogous way. If, as journalist Ana Teresa Toro says, in Latin America “the body makes culture, the body thinks, articulates and gestures ideas, manifests history in a forceful way, it is not a mere consumer or a product, it is an idea and a concept”, El asedio animal participates in the current conversation that links, for example, the struggles of women and indigenous peoples with the care of the land and the protection of natural resources, as part of the same process that considers bodies – individual, collective, natural – as territories of resistance against an economic system that seeks to manage life, death, flesh and its desires.

    THEMA Children’s, Teenage
    Synopsis Marceline thinks, dreams, has a great sense of humor and… she’s a carnivorous plant! From her pot, she narrates what she lives and sees: the conversations with her plant friends, the peculiar things that humans do when they think no one is watching, and her deepest fear: the wicked —and disgusting— cockroaches that won’t miss the chance to eat her. Through her eyes, everyday life becomes extraordinary. One day, she notices some weird sprouts that she’d never had before.

    THEMA Phenomenology & Existentialism
    Synopsis This book is composed of twenty-four contributions that seek to provide a broad overview of points of contact between phenomenology and the philosophical tradition. It is not a history of philosophy from the phenomenological point of view, nor is it a search for “proto-phenomenological” authors. Rather, it is a broad exercise that integrates works in which some of the theses of phenomenology are discussed, dialogued and confronted with some of the peaks of the history of philosophy.

    Synopsis My Chinese Hair is a reunion with curly hair, a catalogue of its possibilities and a celebration of its beauty. It is a fun and educational title with which, based on an everyday anecdote, we seek to celebrate the Afro heritage in our country. In this book we defend the idea that beauty does not have to be seen in a single way, but that we can find it in diversity and it can take all possible forms.

    THEMA Narrative theme: Death, grief, loss
    Synopsis We all live painful experiences, it is part of humanity, in a way it is what transforms us. What determines the value of that situation in your life is the way you transcend it and heal. Is it possible to transform my life into something better? It is a question that, sooner or later, we all ask ourselves. In When Death Taught Me How to Live, Elizabeth Estrada Villegas helps us understand that pain and adversity are not permanent, as long as we are willing to learn from these transformative experiences. Through Holistic Psychology and Self-knowledge, it is possible to achieve a transcendence that helps us heal comprehensively (physically, emotionally, psychologically, spiritually and energetically), in order to transform our lives and those around us.

    THEMA Biography, Literature and Literary studies
    Synopsis A risky novel where the legendary Nahui Olin is questioned and presented as a human character, contradictory and complex, far from myth and a product of her time. Was she free? Does anyone survive the Electra complex and its consequences? Those who read this book will draw their own conclusions. These pages reveal the world of the beginning of the last century and certain protagonists that open the doors to the violent and creative circumstances of a Mexico in reconstruction, in metamorphosis, as well as Carmen Mondragón Valseca herself. This book, above all, opens a space for Nahui Olin to speak again for herself.
    En estas páginas se muestran el mundo de inicios del siglo pasado y ciertos protagonistas que abren las puertas a las circunstancias violentas y creativas de un México en reconstrucción, en metamorfosis, así como la misma María del Carmen Mondragón Valseca.
