Examen extraordinario
Read moreTitle Examen extraordinario Author Villoro, Juan Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667659 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 312 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis A mariachi with serious identity conflicts, quarrels between writers that go back to bellicose youthful encounters in writing workshops, emails sent from somewhat uncertain planes of existence, the countercultural odyssey of a father to ingratiate himself with his daughter, multiple modalities of that variation of masochism known as romance, the anthology Examen ejemplar, prepared by the author himself, condenses the techniques, strategies and narrative motifs of one of the most outstanding literary careers of today. More than a gesture of triumphalism, this volume has a desire for a second chance. The stories gathered here await a second encounter with the reader, the final arbiter of all literature. But this revenge is not granted due to any failure, but as confirmation of the qualities of an extraordinary pen. The vision of the chronicler, the scope of the novelist, the subtle ability to move the playwright: the arsenal of resources of an author as unique as Juan Villoro is presented in this volume to an extraordinary examination in which, without a doubt, the one who will come out ahead is a genre that does not allow distractions: the short story. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

La invención de la música indígena de México. Antropología e historia de las políticas culturales del siglo XX
Read moreTitle La invención de la música indígena de México. Antropología e historia de las políticas culturales del siglo XX Author María Alonso Bolaños Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918662 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 138 Format Printed THEMA Social & cultural anthropology Synopsis Where does what is defined as music, indigenous and national begin and end? It is not a question here of describing or theorizing about national musics, but of the discourse models that concern them, their promotion and conservation practices, the cultural policies surrounding them, the disciplines that investigate them, postulate them as themes or simply parasitize them. This is a genuine act of “invention”, of social construction, which establishes actors, purposes and responsible parties. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
Carcoma
Read moreTitle Carcoma Author Martínez, Layla Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851430 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 128 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In a village in the Spanish countryside, a house is shaking. The windows are slamming, the roofs are narrowing, the walls are slamming down on whoever crosses the threshold of the door. Inside, voices, scratches, cries, and furniture are heard. The house is crying out for things, it is hungry. Its inhabitants – a grandmother and her granddaughter – have learned to live with the shadows in the corners, with the beings hiding under the beds and the dead who arrive tired from crossing the mountain. Built with the money that the great-grandfather earned by prostituting women, the house is the heritage of a family that, along with the walls, has inherited resentment and rage. After the war that devastated the territory but kept the dynamics of power and social classes intact, this home protects while it suffocates. More than a refuge, the house is a condemnation, a curse from which one cannot escape. A place where resentment never stops drilling into the body and the perfect setting for them to cook up their revenge. With exceptional literary skill, Layla Martínez has told a story that is already a literary event in Spain and several other countries. Venturing into terror, Carcoma touches our deepest sensibilities to awaken fear and the bittersweet memory of family ties. While placing gender and class violence in its proper dimension as authentic horror stories, it reminds us that love, hate and trauma are also inherited through blood. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
