Historial clínico
Read moreTitle Historial clínico Author León Plascencia Ñol Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456639 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 144 Format Printed THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis A lo largo de estas páginas, la poesía adopta numerosas estrategias para abordar su electrizante materia de trabajo: el testimonio y el apunte, el listado y el álbum fotográfico, e incluso el diagnóstico, la farmacopea y el acta de defunción. El canto bien temperado es sustituido por la visión febril, y la poesía se vuelve delirio: una vez abierto el surco, metáfora no sólo del verso sino de la herida, toma distancia de él, una distancia crítica y de foco. No de otra forma se puede, ni más ni menos, arar en el vacío. Historial clínico no sólo representa el libro más personal de Plascencia Ñol; integra, además, un deslumbrante capítulo de nuestra poesía elegiaca. Historial clínico se alza con derecho propio, con la victoria pírrica de quien afirma que “el lenguaje no está dicho”. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

La comuna mexicana
Read moreTitle La comuna mexicana Author Bosteels, Bruno Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786078683710 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 320 Format Printed THEMA Socialismo y sistemas relacionados Synopsis Mexico, 1521; Paris, 1871. What these dates summarize are not only violent stories, marked by brutal repressions at the end of each episode, they also contain in their resistance a concern for the potential explosion of the common—an explosion whose political form would be, precisely, the commune. Beyond or here of the workers massacred 150 years ago, or the Aztecs killed 500 years ago, what this book proposes to build is a partial history of that underground tradition of communal rebellions in Mexico. Bruno Bosteels traces the survival of a social form whose aspirations, if we follow Marx's most cited texts, were embodied in the Paris Commune and verified in Russia. However, Marx also wrote about Tenochtitlan and Tlatelolco, and based on these ethnological notes, Bosteels recovers a communal tradition that remained firm throughout the colonial era and was present in the Mexican Revolution. If the calpulli was its first form, experiences such as those of Morelos, Acapulco and Edendale, to Chiapas and currently Cherán, prove that in Mexico the communal, more than a suspended time or an exceptional moment, opens an expansive form that escapes what It is thought to be immovable: an obstinacy that, through multiple isolated outbreaks, traces its path as a political ideal. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -

Pantano
Read moreTitle Pantano Author Felker, Ana Emilia Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851706 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 200 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In the United States, the border does not end at the violent and hyper-surveilled riverbed of the Rio Grande; checkpoints persist within the territory in school hallways, on freshly cut grass where flags wave, in hospitals and in the kitchens of homes, in the parking lot of a Walmart. In the midst of the unprecedented increase in Latin American migration, attempts to contain it are intensified when racism and hate speech demand to be heard. In this scenario, Ana Emilia Felker decides to live four years in Houston to study for a doctorate. She knows that it will be difficult to feel at home in this country where war and death are negotiated with nationality and debt, but this land is also the place of origin and residence of half of her family. Setting out on a journey across water, desert, and highways, she questions how much the American dream costs, what defines whiteness, how to talk about mass shootings while respecting the dignity of the victims, while helping her grandfather sort out his stories and trying to reestablish with her father a conversation that seems stuck in the past. Through chronicles, essays, and personal diaries, Ana Emilia proposes a writing that is as intimate as it is rigorous to think about identity, question racism, and tell what happens when loved ones are separated by walls that cut across space, time, and desire. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
Niños
Read moreTitle Niños Author Ferrada, María José Publisher Alboroto Ediciones, S. A. de C. V. – Alboroto Ediciones Imprint Alboroto ediciones ISBN 9786079779795 Edition number 1 Publication year 2018 Pages 80 Format Printed THEMA Illustrated storybooks Synopsis Niños by María José Ferrada is dedicated to 34 Chilean children who disappeared or were killed during Pinochet’s regime. Literature is surely the place where collective memory lives and is able to make those who were lost immortal. In Niños, Ferrada’s sensitive and moving writing brings those Chilean children to life through a tender, respectful and thought-provoking poem for each child. The gentle, nature-centered poems are tenderly illustrated by María Elena Valdez, using a subtle, muted color palette. Despite the heaviness of the topic, the illustrations provide a sense of lightness in harmony with the poems”. foreign rights contact Mónica Vázquez E-mail monica@alborotoediciones.com -

Publication year 2015 Pages 32 Format Printed THEMA Children’s / Teenage general interest: Literature, books and writers Synopsis The cinematograph is one of the greatest inventions of all times. The big screen still awes children and adults alike, and we never get tired of asking who and when cinema was invented or which the first movie was. Lots of books have been written answering these questions, but we were curious about finding out exactly what happened in Mexico, so we dove into ancient documents and went around asking all sorts of experts. And, by the end of our journey, we had come up with an answer that very few people know: our first fiction feature film was made in Merida, Yucatan, in 1916! foreign rights contact Ixchel Delgado Jordá E-mail info@librosparaimaginar.com -
