Profesores, tiranos y otros pinches chamacos
Read moreTitle Profesores, tiranos y otros pinches chamacos Author Hinojosa, Francisco Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667239 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 406 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Subjects whose encyclopedic knowledge leads them to the top and then to the abyss of their biographies, men obsessed with the idea of death, professors determined to teach extremely simple subjects in extremely complicated ways, presidents who want to sell the country they govern to the highest bidder, literary characters who get out of their roles and commit crazy things left and right. Francisco Hinojosa's imagination fractures plots so unpredictable that on each page his stories take unusual turns, become complicated in unexpected ways and always mutate into the craziest version of themselves. The characters have absurd, generally modest lives, they can even be overwhelmed by comfort and boredom, until one day fate takes a turn and their days become a stepping stone to the unexpected. The reader has in his hands the most comprehensive collection of the author's short stories, a map that indicates his hidden depths, his wild desires and the most surprising stories that make him up. This volume represents an event for Francisco Hinojosa's readers and a true honour for our publishing house: it is the celebration of a literary work that, for several decades, has earned the admiration and affection of everyone. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Read moreTitle Días de tu vida Author Bárbara Jacobs Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074455960 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 184 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis En sus últimas horas de vida, Patricia sostiene un largo monólogo en entrevista con una amiga reportera, quien registra cada una de sus palabras que, si bien expresadas de modo entrecortado –tal como irrumpen en la caja de resonancia de la memoria–, tejen poco a poco la trama completa de su existencia. Con Días de tu vida, Bárbara Jacobs no sólo realiza un entrañable homenaje póstumo a la protagonista y narradora de su relato, sino que consigue atrapar, como nadie más lo ha hecho, la respiración, el tono y el ritmo de esa voz de la agonía en un lenguaje narrativo inédito. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

Gente del mundo
Read moreTitle Gente del mundo Author Alberto Chimal Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074453416 Edition number 1 Publication year 2014 Pages 122 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis It could be that Gente del mundo is merely a residue, a ruin, what remains of a myriad of civilizations. A handful of short texts, where in a crucial gesture a whole culture is sketched. A collection of illustrations that produce an allegoric image of an entire population. Alberto Chimal is Calvino’s and Borges’ best reader of the latest years because instead of admiring them in quote form, he focuses on reimagining. In an environment oversaturated with fidelity to the press, this book shows up and refreshes the literary scene. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -
