Corazón de mierda
Read moreTitle Corazón de mierda Author Gonzalo Lizardo Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074455212 Edition number 1 Publication year 2012 Pages 123 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis In this novel we salute the fortunate appearance of the youngest of our line of picaresque characters. Narrated from a calm old age, it is a story of orphanage, crime, heartbreak and atonement, all common themes to the Lazarillo de Tormes, Periquillo Sarniento and Candingas, a smiling devil that lends his name to the protagonist of this novel. But even if the subjects are the same, the passage through a voice changes them. As he speaks, while he narrates, the voice, at times slang, at times poetic but always juicy, becomes the real main character of this delicious novel. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

Otro día…
Read moreTitle Otro día… Author Gerber Bicecci, Verónica Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667093 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 104 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In 1977, the Voyager probes were launched into outer space. Inside, the Golden Record carries sounds and images of life on Earth, waiting to be found and deciphered. On the other hand, a hundred years ago, José Juan Tablada published Un día… (poemas synthetics), an advanced and subtle artefact composed of haikus and illustrations made by the poet, in which nature is shown as the muse of avant-garde writing. Simple as a gesture, but complex in its implications and references, Otro día… (poemas synthetics), by Verónica Gerber Bicecci, is an exercise in crossings and rewritings that contrasts with the figure of the muse to make a sharp testimony of our present and a deep questioning of the future: a time that may have ceased to be ours. At the same time, it allows us to think about what kind of memory we leave about ourselves and imagine poetry as a satellite, a vestige that could be interpreted by a new civilization. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Read moreTitle Resignificar la violencia. El pensamiento político de Maurice Merleau-Ponty Author Katherine Mansilla Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878384320 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 208 Format Printed THEMA Phenomenology & Existentialism Synopsis "The result of a research on the political thought of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, the author presents Merleau-Ponty's debate with other thinkers (Machiavelli, Husserl, Hegel, Marx, Sartre, Lúckas, among others) in a social and political context marked by the violence of the two world wars, the ideological unilateralism of the Cold War and colonialism. The aim of this contextualization is to make explicit how, from a prereflective phenomenological analysis, the French author elaborates an understanding of political praxis, linked to other relevant ideas in his philosophical thought" foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
Alegorías capilares
Read moreTitle Alegorías capilares Author Rodríguez Blanco, Sergio Publisher Trilce Ediciones Imprint Trilce Ediciones ISBN 9786077663256 Edition number 1 Publication year 2010 Pages 160 Format Printed THEMA The Arts Synopsis Hair Allegories is a journey through the aesthetic universe that unfolds human hair as a material for art in the work of Mexican artist Gabriel de la Mora. Through his vibrant prose, Rodríguez Blanco guides the reader from Walter Benjamin's concept of allegory to Jacques Lacan's category of the real, from Julia Kristeva's abjection to Mario Perniola's sex appeal of the inorganic. Hair is revealed as a sublimated artistic material, as a receptacle for repressed desires, and also as a catapult to sinister places of memory. foreign rights contact Déborah Holtz E-mail deborah@trilce.com.mx -

Deambular otra vez
Read moreTitle Deambular otra vez Author Almada, Selva; Rivera Garza, Cristina; Villalobos, Juan Pablo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851836 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 96 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The essays in this book trace her journey through solitary moments, shared experiences, and natural landscapes that invite us to follow the traces of imagination and writing, divided into three moments: stillness, walking, and sowing. Selva Almada takes us to her semi-rural retreat in Argentina, where nature and silence give meaning to the environment and to her relationship with words. Juan Pablo Villalobos discovers in a tree visible from his window in Barcelona a symbol of the passage of time and resistance, a metaphor for his own way of conceiving writing. Cristina Rivera Garza invites the reader to walk with her through the forests, parks, and gardens of Houston, to show us that Wandering Again is an act of discovery, a constant encounter with the world, imagination, and language. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
