El encarguito
Read moreTitle El encarguito Author Sheridan, Guillermo Publisher Trilce Ediciones Imprint Trilce Ediciones ISBN 9786078745036 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages – Format Digital THEMA Language and Linguistics Synopsis This work brings together the chronicles that Guillermo Sheridan published in the magazine Letras Libres between 1999 and 2006, and some that have appeared in the newspaper Reforma. A deeply rooted custom and inextricable usage that speaks to the Mexican confusion about the uses of affection, the "encarguito"—thing and message, object and symbol—is an elaborate form of nightmare. The choice of the object to be commissioned falls within what in the theory of Mexican identity is known as "ocurrencia" or "detallito" (little detail), a phenomenon that consists of applying ingenuity to the meticulous concoction of a nonsense. foreign rights contact Déborah Holtz E-mail deborah@trilce.com.mx -

The former said of Gounod: “He is a great musician, but he has no dramatic substance”, while the latter commented on Verdi: “He is not only an illustrious composer, but a clever businessman”. Verdi had a life full of triumphs for his numerous works -among them La Traviata and Aida-. Gounod, in turn, is remembered today for his Ave Maria and two splendid operas: Faust and Romeo and Juliet. foreign rights contact Alejandro Cruz Atienza E-mail a.cruzatienza@colnal.mx -
