Angel Doria incarnates the mixture of cultures and values that will create Mexico as a Nation and a State.

Nuestro mundo muerto
Read moreTitle Nuestro mundo muerto Author Colanzi, Liliana Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764877 Edition number 2 Publication year 2024 Pages 136 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis With great force and a very particular violence, Liliana Colanzi places the reader on the threshold of several worlds: the earthly and the fantastic, science fiction and indigenous idiosyncrasy, memory and nightmare. Making her stories mechanisms in which rural songs and testimonies of ethnographic studies operate, the Bolivian author constructs atmospheres in which there is always a longing - whether for home, childhood or even our planet - that is the product of the encounter with that which seems foreign to us, but where what is longed for contains at the same time illness and poverty, mystery and death. Thus, the magic of exoticized Latin America is replaced by the crudeness of the Colony and extractivism, by fanaticism and superstition. A woman on a colonization mission on Mars, someone waiting for her lover in a Paris hotel, a young man possessed by the murderous impulse of a Mataco Indian, are some of the characters that inhabit these stories, in which fantasy dissolves into terror and suspense. With this collection, the reader has the opportunity to witness the emergence of one of the most powerful voices from the south of the continent on the Mexican literary scene. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

El hechicero de la tribu. Vargas Llosa y el liberalismo en América Latina
Read moreTitle El hechicero de la tribu. Vargas Llosa y el liberalismo en América Latina Author Boron, Atilio Alberto; Ramb Hughes, Ana María Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786079818593 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 240 Format Printed THEMA Political ideologies Synopsis To be fruitful, criticism must not attack a man, but rather work on ideas. The strength of the present analysis arises from the example that Atilio Boron (Buenos Aires, 1943) provides to his readers: the beauty in the discourse should not distract us from the approach or the arguments (if they exist). It is under this conviction that before us—and without anesthesia—a political dismantling is carried out with rigor and demand, at the level of a legend. Thus, with the intention of entering the core of Vargas Llosa, we start from his praise of the neoliberal system—of which he has become a great public defender—to discover a long-winded person close to power and its ideology, a disseminator hidden behind the branches of literature and the Latin American boom. Boron himself points it out: “Despite his elemental and tendentious handling of the categories and theories of political analysis, or perhaps due to the mastery with which he handles sophistry and 'post-truths', Vargas Llosa is a fundamental piece in the "massive device of 'brainwashing' and conservative propaganda that is so carefully practiced by the ruling classes of the metropolises and their henchmen in the periphery." foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -

Mucha madre

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764594 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 304 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Mucha madre is a collective book coordinated and edited by Andrea Fuentes. In it, eleven writers –Gabriela Jauregui, Luisa Fuentes Guaza, Clarisa Moura, Andrea Fuentes, Abril Castro, Violeta Celis, Pilar Villela, Sara Schulz, Ave Barrera, Jazmina Barrera and Gina Jaramillo– and eight illustrators –Amanda Mijangos, Sol Undurraga, Liz Meville, Rachel Levit, Gala Navarro, Sonia Pulido, María Luque and Carmen Segovia– share their ideas, experiences and practices of motherhood to reinvent it. With a language made of words and images, this book is a kaleidoscope that brings together the thoughts and feelings of women with different stories, whose reflections relate their experiences of mothering at different ages and sexual preferences or thanks to fertility treatments; they talk about raising children as single mothers or as stepmothers, they discuss the division of child care within couples, weaning, breastfeeding, and even the refusal to write about being a mother or the decision not to be one. Mucha Madre is a book that relies on diversity; each text shows that there is not just one motherhood, but many motherhoods that, in their multiplicity, call for a collective and urgent conversation in which we all – mothers or not – are part of. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

The different discourses around life (such as biology, ethics, politics, phenomenology and theology) characterize it by its capacity to be a cause and principle of itself. Hence, we can speak of a bio-political paradigm of autarky. This deconstructive analysis shows that if the characteristic of life and the living is its being referred to itself, then all contact and trade with the other is either accidental or anecdotal. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
