En blanco
Read moreTitle En blanco Author Bu, Catalina Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667178 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 120 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis A collection of drawings, sketches, thoughts. Those that appear when you sit at your desk in front of a blank sheet of paper, full of expectations and the desire to do something impressive, the project of the year, your masterpiece, but it goes wrong because of nerves, you get angry, it comes out forced, nothing to do with what you imagine. The inspiring music then turns into an unbearable noise, you think: Why did I dedicate myself to this? I should have studied something else. I haven't had any water. Did I take out the trash? You get up from your chair, throw yourself on the bed and put on stripes anything to calm yourself down and get through the bad time. A giant rock on top of a tiny character. A square inside another square inside another square. That's where lucidity lies. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
Los días terrenales
Read moreTitle Los días terrenales Author José Revueltas Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074454147 Edition number 1 Publication year 2015 Pages 272 Format Print and digital THEMA Fiction: general and literary Synopsis When this novel was published in 1949 it was the center of passionate arguments and accusations. In it, the well-known author of Dios en la tierra and Los muros de agua addressed the themes of class struggle with an introspective vision which, while being faithful to his Marxist militancy, questions deeply the “positive character” dogma by presenting characters with an inner life ridden with the contradictions of the human condition. Today this book appears intensely alive. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

Señales distantes
Read moreTitle Señales distantes Author Vásquez, Antonio Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667963 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 163 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In “Prima materia,” a young acolyte suffers from a strange illness – or curse – due to which his body slowly takes on the texture of a rock. In “La jaula,” the gift that a suitor buys for a girl is rejected, which turns it into a symbol of failure. A Mexican tourist is taken by a young Japanese woman to her small coastal town, where they will take an unexpected role in an ancestral rite, in “El sueño de la esposa del pescador.” “Señales lejanos” tells the story of a mother who is looking for her missing daughter. In “Insomnio,” a man is kidnapped after a sleepless night; his memories let us know that his sleepless nights have a tragic origin. In “Déjà vu,” a woman and her writer husband find themselves trapped in a time loop. “Gestación” tells the story of a young couple who work in a pozolería to guarantee the material support of the child they are expecting; Here, the child and the raw material of his work end up coinciding in a terrifying way. “Gnossienne” has as its protagonist a musician made a prophet by a post-apocalyptic humanity that does not know noise. Finally, “Rebis” is an intense mystical journey full of hermetic allusions. Antonio Vásquez surprises us again with his narrative mastery, this time with a book of short stories whose stories are intertwined with each other, like the sounds of an orchestra that amalgamate until they become an extraordinary symphony. The characters in these stories seem to assure us that where the deepest human pains and obsessions exist, its most fervent desires, a door opens for the extraordinary to take place. The fantastic in Antonio Vásquez's stories is not presented as a handful of magical acts but as a way of seeing and feeling the world, as the mythical thread that connects our intimate daily deaths and resurrections with the mystery of creation: the cycle of the origin of life and its inevitable destruction. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
