No fue penal
Read moreTitle No fue penal Author Villoro, Juan Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851508 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 104 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis It Wasn't a Penalty offers two versions of the same play. In dramatic fashion, this move brings together two friends whom fate has turned into enemies. El Tanque is the manager of a team that will be relegated to the second division if they lose the match. From his small prison as a technical director, he faces something more than the score: his future and his past are at stake. With his throat torn to pieces, he fights against the clumsiness of his own players and the decisions of the referee. Meanwhile, he is observed by Valeriano Fuentes, the former friend with whom he shared a tragedy that changed their lives and who is now in charge of the implacable justice of the VAR. For years, Juan Villoro, winner of the Manuel Vázquez Montalbán International Award for Dios es redondo, has written chronicles and essays on football. This time he uses two complementary narratives to tell a story about sporting passion, brotherhood and rivalries, and to explore the theatrical condition of those who intervene in the game from off the field. Controversial plays depend on who watches them. It Wasn't a Penalty brings to light a disconcerting condition of sport: what is legitimate for some is an insult for others. The match is stopped and the action is reviewed by the VAR. What will be the verdict? Two very different stories explain this disturbing moment of decision. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Horrorífica

Fears turn over ourselves, our destructive capacity and the limits of what is allowed because we are convinced that an optimistic perspective of progress is now incompatible with a viable future. More than ever, we need to look for evil in our actions and their consequences. Illness, aging and death constitute the most fearsome of the trilogies for human beings. These stories place us in the main characters' perspectives and awaken our survival instincts to remind us that the monster is just around the corner. foreign rights contact Oswaldo Muñoz, Quetzalli de la Concha E-mail oswaldo.munoz@penguinrandomhouse.com; quetzalli.delaconcha@penguinrandomhouse.com -
