Ese espacio, ese jardín
Read moreTitle Ese espacio, ese jardín Author Coral Bracho Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456318 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 64 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis This long poem is the scenery where several characters play a moving part, such as the fox, the jaguar, the ubiquitous clown, children dripping with joy and an interlocutor that the poetic voice addresses with loving dedication. It is the touching space of childhood, that brightens and incessantly lays down a vital spot. But it is mostly the place of natural wonder, described with talent, always marked by fine rays of light, sparkles and reflections that covers it, simultaneously, of a sharp clarity and a just as sharp certainty of fleetingness. As in this space, in this garden, this life is supported by the roots of death. This book was translated into Italian and published by Edizioni Kolibris in 2015 foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -
Una ballena es un país
Read moreTitle Una ballena es un país Author Zapata, Isabel Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667864 Edition number 2 Publication year 2020 Pages 112 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In this collection of poems, Isabel Zapata advances along the path of what I will call the ethics of consideration: the ability to take into account the experience of others and act accordingly. While some of us are barely testing this terrain—David Foster Wallace wrote a chronicle to consider lobsters and I wrote a long time ago a consideration of manatees—Isabel Zapata has immersed herself in this ethics with an entire book of animal considerations. At the beginning, regarding shark eggs, she recommends: “Consider their violent geometry,” and in this verse resonates the tiger that William Blake also considered long ago. In A Whale Is a Country, Zapata considers cetaceans, felines, rhinoceroses, pets, and extinct beasts. I see in this book by Zapata the seed of a new heterodox humanism, a humanism that, in the recognition of our animal condition, unites us with the beasts and plants that our voracity is ravaging. I recognize myself in each of these poems, because they give voice to the desire, more human than any other, of not being left alone in the world, isolated, furious and repressed.

Furia
Read moreTitle Furia Author Mendoza, Clyo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764778 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 264 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In a desert dotted with war-ravaged villages, two deserters from opposing sides discover a dark truth about their family. Vicente Barrera, a thread seller who once went from town to town conquering women and planting his children in them, spends his last years tied up in a room turned into an angry dog. María has found in Salvador a love that, so deep, seems to dissolve them into each other and mix their dreams as if concocted by the same mind. It is in that territory that the characters' destinies become intertwined, that their wounds are inherited and bleed out. In that clean landscape where fury and desire find their way, a story is told about children – that of their bodies and affections – but also about the women who surround them: mothers, lovers, companions. After being awarded the Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz International Poetry Prize, Clyo Mendoza writes a novel of extraordinary beauty, where language embarks on a hallucinatory journey through eroticism, the transitions of consciousness and the possibility that different beings can inhabit the same body. Through a journey through madness, Furia offers a moving questioning of love, violence and the suffering that it brings with it. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
