Ciudad Láser
Read moreTitle Ciudad Láser Author Correa, Mariantuá Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851676 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 152 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis One cold, wet afternoon, after leaving work at the Ciudad Láser beauty center, Soledad prepares to return home, but never arrives at her destination. Giselle Horn, a detective about to retire, descends into the depths of a city that has forgotten its people, to follow the trail of someone who took a deep secret with him. Meanwhile, Raúl, her boyfriend, finds himself dragged into an existence darkened by guilt. As the investigation progresses, Soledad's absence pushes Horn to delve into his own past to find the answers, because in a reality where nothing is what it seems and the illusion of freedom consumes itself, sometimes it is necessary to retrace steps to unravel the mystery. On the borders of the noir novel, Ciudad Láser is a current x-ray of the corruption, machismo and perversion of desires that surround us. But above all, it is a truncated love story, where desire, and the lack that fuels it, tumble into a spiral of violence overshadowed by a disappearance. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Una historia crítica de la idea de vida. El paradigma bio-teo-político de la autarquía
Read moreTitle Una historia crítica de la idea de vida. El paradigma bio-teo-político de la autarquía Author Martín Grassi Publisher Sb editorial Imprint Sb editorial ISBN 9789878918242 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 232 Format Printed THEMA Philosophy Synopsis The present book embarks on a critical-conceptual history of the notion of life in the West. 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 -

In these passages, the novelist offers beautiful and hallucinatory descriptions of the desert, its mountains, its vastness and its towns, until the moment arrives when each character confronts their deepest and most unspeakable feelings. This disturbing novel confirms Antonio Ramos as a first-rate narrator. It is a reflection on the nature of the human being, that being tormented by his desires, always determined to seek his happiness in the place that seems to be the least suitable.
