Persona
Read moreTitle Persona Author Seguro, Yolanda Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667819 Edition number 2 Publication year 2020 Pages 99 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis It is necessary to stop understanding the person as a thing that has the capacity to say “I”. A person is not a natural thing or a decree, it is not a substance but a relationship. “A person is something that laughs,” writes Yolanda Segura. Who laughs, what laughs? This book is important, because in it Segura has taken the concept of a person (inaccurate, contradictory and insufficient) and has taken it to a universal code, showing us the intelligence of poetry activated by the lucidity of its discernment. She scrutinizes, sniffs and investigates the inside/outside of what we are, that being, individual, subject or similar and its multiple connotations and imaginaries. We must look carefully: What does the author collect? What has she decided to record? Persona is an extraordinary book, and not only in Mexican poetry, it is a novel, documented and deeply thought-out meditation. We know that there is no discipline that can provide conclusive results on the person/non-human person problem and that is why we need to go further: to poetry as an intuitive and instinctive vision, as a cosmic idea, unify yourself. If person is an incomprehensible hybrid that even surpasses the status of what we are used to calling “the human,” what defines us? Where do we live? Where are the signs of what we are? Surely, we know that the investigation can only take place in the work with language. (Carla Faesler) foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Materia dispuesta
Read moreTitle Materia dispuesta Author Villoro, Juan Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851294 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 280 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis After the 1957 earthquake expelled his family from the cosmopolitan center of Mexico City, Mauricio Guardiola spent his childhood and adolescence on the streets of Terminal Progreso, a neighborhood embedded in the semi-rural landscape of Xochimilco that seems to have crystallized the promises of a bright future into simple nostalgia for the future. In the shadow of his father—a vehement and womanizing architect, obsessed with capturing Mexican identity in his buildings—and haunted by the edifying phrases his mother sticks on the refrigerator door, Mauricio begins his sexuality, friendship, love, and the search for a vocation through a series of characters who are shaped by their obsessions. But is it possible to acquire firm convictions on shaky ground? In a territory as hesitant as Mexico City, any certainty can seem absurd. With athletic prose and a great sense of humor, Juan Villoro constructs an ironic reverse of the coming-of-age novel in which adulthood is shown as a condition of inadequacy. More than twenty years after its first publication, Almadía reissues Materia funcionable, crucible of the obsessions and literary genius of one of the most recognized and beloved writers of the Spanish language. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
