With Ámbar (Amber), winner of the 2022 Dashiell Hammett International Black Novel Award, Nicolás Ferraro has written a disturbing story about the affection between father and daughter, the horror of criminal life, and open wounds, both on the skin and on the conscience”.

Las vigilantes
Read moreTitle Las vigilantes Author Elvira Liceaga Publisher Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial Imprint Lumen ISBN 9786073826662 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 280 Format Printed THEMA Narrative theme: Social issues Synopsis After spending a few years abroad, Julia returns to Mexico. She settles in her mother's house, Catalina, chasing the traces of her past as a way of finding herself again. Upon her return she meets with Silvia, a young pregnant woman who lives in a foster home waiting for the moment she has to give birth and hand her son to other parents. The three women mirror each other in a way that places the reader in front of some of the great questions that assail us all, such as our relationship with that origin that is signified in the mother figure, and caring for others, from time to time somewhat in a vigilant way. Subtle and clever, Liceaga's prose asks who we are in the rupture of everyday life... and searches deeply to caress our wounds. The critics say: "Anchored in the bond of sisterhood, this book suggests that a woman's journey to writing involves a return to herself. It is a solitary return no more, but a luminous fury reaching a moment of highest purity in the collective harangue. This is what Julia, who has undertaken many trips to get closer to writing, discovers and she finds out that the most important question is lodged in the body other woman, in the silence she comes from and the silence she is headed to." Andrea Cote "A stranger in her own house, the narrator wants to bring order into chaos with her writing but present, past and future farewells bring her back to orality and margins, where she meets other women going through different processes and duels. The guardians of this beautiful novel live in me, because there are no heroines or epics, but hope in small gestures. 'Here are survivors and embroidered complicity'."

Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851157 Edition number 2 Publication year 2022 Pages 160 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Pajarito works like a collector's cabinet, a display of small artifacts treasured for the uniqueness of their details, gathered according to a very personal taxonomy. Coat racks that are immense men, words that fall like shavings in a sawmill, trees that with their strength provoke the fury of the wind, a sea contained in a plastic bottle, sheets stained with secrets; with these elements, stories are told starring men and women whose character does not fit with the cold schedules of productivity and the routes they find to escape from it. They are vivid snapshots of loneliness and foreignness through which both the latent fatality in our lives and the capacity of language to endow it with other meanings appear. The stories in this collection find their greatest power in the irruption of a poetic imaginary in the details of the most routine everyday life. In their brevity and precision, they propose continuous escapes towards the territories of the lyrical and unexpected. There is in this book an insistent invitation to look around us with different eyes, to seek and put into practice the subtle – and often cruel – sensitivity of Claudia Ulloa Donoso. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

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 -

Thanks to forced meditations, useless institutions or million-dollar companies that sell the unthinkable, we get closer to the terrifying presence of mystery in everyday life. As a sample of the discourses that exist outside, Periferia brings together the voices of the incomparable: here yogis, bosses, healers, public transport, academics and hitmen have something in common. They reveal with severity and irony the great contradictions of modern cities; what we are letting pass, what is already beyond our hands and what those who study humanity in the future will say about us—if the world survives. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Read moreTitle Los viajeros Author Bernardo Fernández “Bef” (antologador) Publisher SM México Imprint Gran Angular ISBN 9786072444188 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 240 Format Printed THEMA Children’s, Teenage Synopsis What can science fiction be about, skeptics ask, mariachis in space? Maybe, but those are not the kind of stories you'll find in this book. Although the first work of Mexican science fiction dates from 1775, perpetrators of the subgenre have had to publish their work from the margins. With rare exceptions, the storytellers of the imaginative have formed a ghostly guild.

Los padrotes de Tlaxcala
Read moreTitle Los padrotes de Tlaxcala Author Juan Alberto Vázquez Publisher Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial Imprint Aguilar IDEAS ISBN 9786073829755 Edition number N/A Publication year 2023 Pages 288 Format Printed THEMA Violence and abuse in society Synopsis Tenancingo, a small town in Tlaxcala, is known for being one of the epicenters of human trafficking not only in Mexico, but of the whole world. From there, entire families of pimps have spread their million-dollar business throughout Mexico and a good part of the United States. Mexican governments have done little to dismantle these networks, suggesting corruption and complicity with those who practice this sadistic trade. But some of these criminals have fallen. In this thorough investigation Juan Alberto Vázquez tells the story of five clans of padrotes who have been tried in New York courts. Their violent beginnings, their methods of recruiting vulnerable girls and women, their extortions, their criminal psychology. At the same time, the testimonies of female victims of this crime and their difficult path to integrate into society, the efforts of activists to confront trafficking, the legal ambiguities in which white slavery traffickers operate. Undoubtedly, Los padrotes de Tlaxcala is a hard and heartbreaking book that shows the perverse side of the consumer society, whose machinery has created a market for sexual slavery. foreign rights contact Quetzalli de la Concha Oswaldo Muñoz

Merleau-Ponty y la génesis del cuerpo Author Jesica Buffone Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918938 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 152 Format Printed THEMA Phenomenology & Existentialism Synopsis How does the baby's body begin to organize itself in order to get to know its environment? What role do others, objects and movement play in the development of the body schema? The importance of the study of infancy within Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology lies in the desire to unravel the very genesis of our perception. In dialogue with the works of Jean Piaget and Henri Wallon, Merleau-Ponty analyzes child development from a perspective that considers the material conditions that surround the child and the bonds that they establish with their caregivers as defining elements of their being in the world. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -
