El cuarto jinete
Read moreTitle El cuarto jinete Author Verónica Murguía Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456165 Edition number 2 Publication year 2023 Pages 240 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis According to Juan de Patmos, the fourth rider of the apocalypse will arrive riding on a bay horse; his name will be Mortality and Hell his companion. This seemed to occur in 1348, when the bubonic plague killed over a third of the European population. With astonishing realism, El cuarto jinete immerses us in a devastated Paris, where we can witness monks addressing God with questions, flagellant fanatics blaming everything on the Jews, orphaned children who beg and steal to survive, and Abu Alí Ibn Mohamed de Ronda, wise and compassionate doctor dressed as Pedro de Hispania, with his young disciple. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

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 -

De la infancia
Read moreTitle De la infancia Author Mario González Suárez Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074453690 Edition number 1 Publication year 2014 Pages 144 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis This novel is a book of frontiers. It takes place at the edge of the city, where the plain, the bare forest, the highway, and the manufacturing zone begin. The main characters also move on the edge: a family that oscillates between a frugal resistance within legality and numerous attempts at some heist that would free them from poverty once and for all. But at the same time, and here this book becomes unique, this family inhabits the frontiers where the daily routine gets infected and borders fantasy in an ambiguous, dubious way. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

Un dios con el estómago vacío
Read moreTitle Un dios con el estómago vacío Author Candeira, Matías Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851850 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 184 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In these stories, life is torn apart and leaves a trail of blood with drops of black comedy in the hallway. The patriarchs go to the beach with their children and ignore the apocalypse that is approaching on the horizon. The gods have awakened, they are hungry for human beings. Couples look every day at a hole in the wall of their house and wonder how long this happiness that never seems to run out will last. A young man mutates into a swarm of flies when he is fired and a couple argues with their son while burying him in the garden. Death lurks everywhere: in the form of a crack, a hole, a jaw that opens between the sea and the sky, embodied in a hitman who is waiting, or boarding a bus after a bad day tired of dealing with its responsibilities. At any moment it strikes. The protagonists of these stories are rabbits paralyzed in front of the headlights of a car that illuminates the absurd. Aware of the density of time and how short the fuse is, they see everything that slips through their fingers fall to pieces: love, happiness, home, identity, the plot. Matías Candeira spins poetry and tragedy very finely to display the acidic humor of the wound. Playing with language until the ridiculous and the sublime go hand in hand, he turns reality into a fracture; he challenges it with a distortion. Here, no one can be trusted anymore, much less the narrative voices that observe their characters under a microscope – and us along with them – with the cruelest and fiercest gaze while everything is about to blow up. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx
