Mexico is the central case study: a society that recognises inequality, distrusts the government and wants those who have the most to pay more, but which at the same time overestimates its social mobility and makes its support conditional on the tax contributions of the elites. foreign rights contact Gabriela Said Reyes E-mail gsaid@colmex.mx -

Señales distantes

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667963 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 163 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In “Prima materia,” a young acolyte suffers from a strange illness – or curse – due to which his body slowly takes on the texture of a rock. In “La jaula,” the gift that a suitor buys for a girl is rejected, which turns it into a symbol of failure. A Mexican tourist is taken by a young Japanese woman to her small coastal town, where they will take an unexpected role in an ancestral rite, in “El sueño de la esposa del pescador.” “Señales lejanos” tells the story of a mother who is looking for her missing daughter. In “Insomnio,” a man is kidnapped after a sleepless night; his memories let us know that his sleepless nights have a tragic origin. In “Déjà vu,” a woman and her writer husband find themselves trapped in a time loop. “Gestación” tells the story of a young couple who work in a pozolería to guarantee the material support of the child they are expecting; Here, the child and the raw material of his work end up coinciding in a terrifying way. “Gnossienne” has as its protagonist a musician made a prophet by a post-apocalyptic humanity that does not know noise. Finally, “Rebis” is an intense mystical journey full of hermetic allusions. Antonio Vásquez surprises us again with his narrative mastery, this time with a book of short stories whose stories are intertwined with each other, like the sounds of an orchestra that amalgamate until they become an extraordinary symphony. The characters in these stories seem to assure us that where the deepest human pains and obsessions exist, its most fervent desires, a door opens for the extraordinary to take place. The fantastic in Antonio Vásquez's stories is not presented as a handful of magical acts but as a way of seeing and feeling the world, as the mythical thread that connects our intimate daily deaths and resurrections with the mystery of creation: the cycle of the origin of life and its inevitable destruction. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Bavispe
Read moreTitle Bavispe Author Carlos René Padilla Publisher Editorial NitroPress Imprint Nitro/Press ISBN 9786078805044 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 112 Format Printed THEMA Crime and mystery: hard-boiled crime, noir fiction; Adventure fiction: Westerns; Contemporary horror and ghost stories Synopsis Winner of the national «Fuentes Mares» Prize, 2022. The same as Comala, Bavispe is a small town crushed by the heat and an apparent monotony which stories are transformed by Carlos René Padilla into unforgettable narratives inhabited by ghosts and living beings willing to take away our calm while reading. Padilla makes use of a language that is often poetic and at the same time rooted in orality to narrate a variety of rural dramas that go from the presence of ghosts in the streets to the violence of revenge, that seem to update the narrative of Juan Rulfo. foreign rights contact Lilia Barajas Martínez E-mail editorial.nitropress@gmail.com -
Mañana ya no hablaremos de nada
Read moreTitle Mañana ya no hablaremos de nada Author Bizarro, Montse Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851638 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 192 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The characters in this story cling to friendship in a world that has robbed them of their future, while inhabiting a vibrant Barcelona where drugs, violence and psychological challenges predominate. The protagonist faces the challenge of loving Lorena because, contrary to what she imagines, love at twenty is not a fairy tale, but an open wound that oozes jealousy, abandonment and frustration. With a dizzying pace and stark writing that challenges readers, Mañana ya no hablaremos de nada exposes how neurodiversity determines our perception of the world – the street, love, fun, self-concept – and relationships with others. Montse Bizarro shows us with skill, sensitivity and compassion that we live in an era in which psychological stability has become a precious commodity. And, in the face of the relentless self-exploitation of our time, she poses a crucial question: who has intact mental health? foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Paraíso Claustral
Read moreTitle Paraíso Claustral Author Carlos Aganzo Publisher Vaso Roto Imprint ISBN 9788412611144 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 72 Format Printed THEMA Biography, Literature and Literary studies Synopsis After enjoying a life of luxury as an official at the court of Emperor Xizong, the Chinese poet Si Kongtu retired to the slopes of Mount Hua to write The Twenty-Four Categories of Poetry. Considered a fundamental work in Chinese literary aesthetics, it seeks to capture, through the contemplation of nature, the Tao, the principle that governs the order of the universe. El Paraíso claustral by Carlos Aganzo is born from an immense admiration for these two thinkers and from his own reflection on their (our) presence in the world. A thread of thought from which the author pulls little by little in search of his own learnings, and which leaves us luminous and hopeful maxims of our relationship with the world we inhabit and, at the same time, inhabits us. foreign rights contact María Fuentes E-mail edicion@vasoroto.com -

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764129 Edition number 2 Publication year 2021 Pages 168 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis With the intelligent curiosity and the transparent and warm language that has been shown in Cuerpo extraño and Cuaderno de faros, Jazmina Barrera once again explores her body through writing, but this time through the first moments of her motherhood. Almost attending an intimate and familiar conversation, which accompanies the author's thoughts in the chronicle of the transformations of her body, her sensations, fears and reactions, while going through the work of women who through photographs, texts or paintings found in art their own language to relate and understand - as mothers, daughters or companions - their experiences of gestation, childbirth and breastfeeding. Visiting the stories of the women in her family or artists such as Tina Modotti, Frida Kahlo, Rosario Castellanos, Marlene Dumas, Mary Shelley, Ursula K. Le Guin, Virginia Woolf, Luz Jiménez, Simone de Beauvoir, Alice Munro or Margaret Atwood, Barrera's lucid and honest gaze does not give in to easy sentimentality; The writer explores the darkness of pregnancy and tells the story of pain, anguish and happiness in a pristine language that is amazed by the mystery, so common but so magical, of giving birth. Linea nigra is the story of a woman whose body is transformed into a writing that she will gradually decipher, while her writing is also transformed by her pregnant body. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx
