8.8: el miedo en el espejo
Read moreTitle 8.8: el miedo en el espejo Author Villoro, Juan Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078486779 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 184 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis In what is undoubtedly his most exciting chronicle, Juan Villoro tells how he was able to compare the intensity of two of the most terrible earthquakes that Latin America has suffered: the 1985 earthquake in Mexico City and the 2010 earthquake in Santiago de Chile. Convinced that these disasters should be told with the most representative voices involved, Villoro took the stories of his fellow earthquake survivors and built a concert of impressions that is not lacking in suspense or absurdity. “After reading this heartfelt and vibrant book, one might think that the author did not tell the whole truth: 8.8 was written with fear still in the skin, and perhaps in that secret lies its extraordinary power.” -Leonardo Tarifeño foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

There are too many wrong things in this world because of adults. But only the young, the ones that have the the slightest responsibility for the destruction, pain and barbarity, have the possibility of improving and correcting what we have left behind. This book is for them. Children, teenagers and young people caught in the middle of conflict are required to think or act as if they were older to remain safe. They are the ones we need to think about first and we need to comprehend them. If we had to choose a single reason to be aware of what happens far away, they are it. How we failed as adults is a puzzle of what is decomposed: the civil war in Syria, the crisis in Myanmar, the violation of human rights in Iran, the armed conflicts in Yemen, Libya, Palestine and Israel. foreign rights contact Oswaldo Muñoz, Quetzalli de la Concha E-mail oswaldo.munoz@penguinrandomhouse.com; quetzalli.delaconcha@penguinrandomhouse.com -

Llamadas de Ámsterdam
Read moreTitle Llamadas de Ámsterdam Author Villoro, Juan Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667147 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 80 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis There are images that are here to stay. The silhouette of Jesús Juan, the protagonist of Llamadas de Amsterdam, dressed in his heavy overcoat and walking in the rain along one of the most emblematic streets of Mexico City, is one of them. This confirms the vitality that this short novel maintains in the public's taste ten years after its publication. The vertigo of all amorous impetus, the precision of silences, the subtle and charismatic humor, an atmosphere that captures the elegance of restlessness: Juan Villoro condenses in these pages the elements of a writing that has managed to produce more than one contemporary classic. Llamadas de Amsterdam is without a doubt one of the most endearing books in our catalog, a title thanks to which a large number of readers have approached our label and have become part of the Almadía family. For this reason, and with the same enthusiasm that has characterized us over ten years, we publish this new edition: So that thanks to it, more people will share this wonderful literary experience. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -

Tiempo y liberación. Exordio a pensamientos liberatorios, vivenciales y decoloniales
Read moreTitle Tiempo y liberación. Exordio a pensamientos liberatorios, vivenciales y decoloniales Author Vallega Arredondo, Alejandro Arturo Publisher EdicionesAkal México Imprint AKAL ISBN 9786078683147 Edition number 1 Publication year 2019 Pages 368 Format Printed THEMA Critical philosophy Synopsis We will make an exception: for this book we will not talk about its themes or the authors with whom it dialogues, but rather its effects. Hidden within its pages is an invitation to live, think and position oneself from Latin America, which—in short—means nothing other than experiencing the crisis at all times. Latin America understood as a temporary, dynamic fact; a being-being that situates, but also transforms. Living in crisis is, then, presented as a fruitful option towards new modalities of consciousness. The route that we present here does not go through ideal concepts; in fact, it avoids the transcendental: it is on cultural consciousness and concrete experience (from the Latin concrescere, “grown by accumulation”) that the yeast of this book works. In the analysis of daily living/dying as a phenomenon, we are presented with a path towards that which is understood through the senses and not reason; towards what is prior to concepts and even to the acquisition of language: to what is involuntary/embodied memory. It is in the concrete and radical meeting of all these parts that a decolonial key is offered: time as a linear (and progress) structure that leaves everything behind, opens to simultaneous times that operate as a tool to situate Latin American consciousness in its pluriversality, in an ecstatic, simultaneous structure, open to affective and memorial dimensions in a being exposed in skin, heart and mind to what is different. foreign rights contact Jorge Betanzos E-mail jorge.betanzos@akal.com -

André Breton once said that Mexico was the country of choice for black humor. He was not exaggerating. And contrary to what they say out there, literature also proves him right: from José T. de Cuéllar to Jorge Ibargüengoitia, to mention the classics, several national writers have successfully resisted the onslaught of "serious literature". foreign rights contact Estela Ruiz Torres E-mail estela.ruiz.torres@grupo-sm.com -

Imprint Trillas ISBN 9786071711281 Edition number 1 Publication year 2012 Pages 568 Format Printed THEMA The Arts Synopsis This book combines theoretical and practical elements to explain the phenomenon of art. Students, teachers and specialists in the field will find concepts such as ‘surface-object’, painting, basic and graphic surfaces, crafts and object and spatial designs. According to the author, art cannot be understood if the context in which the work arises is left aside, since its virtues and shortcomings are omitted, and it is impossible to consider those elements that transform art for the benefit of our Latin American reality. foreign rights contact Jorge Durán E-mail jorge.duran@trillas.mx -
