I wrote the first sentence several times, erased it, rewrote it, erased it again.... After much hesitation, Alexia finally gets up the courage to send an e-mail to Benedict Woodward, a famous writer, to confess how much she likes his books and to ask him about his next novel.

An adventure in which nothing is what it seems... foreign rights contact Estela Ruiz Torres E-mail estela.ruiz.torres@grupo-sm.com -

Read moreTitle Cavernas Author Luis Jorge Boone Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074453737 Edition number 1 Publication year 2014 Pages 115 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis There are books that invite us to the primal house, sacred and obscene at once: the house of myth, of beginning and end, the house that has always been there, even before its first inhabitants, the cavern. At the same time, the cavern is the magical archive of all rites, all dreams, all stories: the cavern is the origin of literature and, by going back to it, we return to its most resistant form and to all its branches. In this book we find characters haunted by ghosts, but also those which, when they reach the other edge of their lives, end up becoming spectres themselves. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -
Cuarto de hotel
Read moreTitle Cuarto de hotel Author Coral Bracho Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456332 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 64 Format Printed THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis Which room? Which hotel? The readers of this round and intriguing book will ask themselves; a book whose simple strokes and complex effects recall the watercolors that integrate into the whiteness of paper to transmit the surprise of the work of art. The room is oneself; the room is the world; it is memory or identity; or it is, in fact, a hotel room, or a hospital room; or a country. Whatever the answer or the sum of answers is, this book is an allegory of our fleeting nature and of the temporary condition of a repeatedly warlike and wrecked world. This book was translated into French and published by Éditions Al Manar in 2015. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -
