    THEMA Biography, Literature and Literary studies
    Synopsis This biography, based on Alfonso Reyes' most personal and intimate pages -letters and diaries- rebuilds the life of Alfonso Reyes, whose message and legacy are greater than his work. Grounded in his cultural and political context at all times, it also aims to be a history of Mexican culture in the first half of the twentieth century. Alfonso Reyes undertook a difficult process of integration into the Mexican post-revolutionary regime. He was a notable diplomat (in Spain, France, Argentina and Brazil) and a creator of essential institutions for the country.

    THEMA Short stories; Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary
    Synopsis “Each story offers two versions of the same dramatic situation where, through a structure of mirrors that allows the texts to reflect and respond to each other, a detailed portrait of life is elaborated. Stories that take us down the path of loss, of the various forms of violence that furrow and traverse life, of the small battles that we choose to fight and the mediocre victories that console us, but also of sweetness, compassion and the brief joys that make the world a less ungrateful place and that force us to see ourselves and understand why we want to look away”.

Each journey contains its own detours, where distance transforms her perspective on the starting point, and the return reveals doors that hold the promise of unsuspected possibilities.

    THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary
    Synopsis The ten stories included in this book build a universe in which wonders confirm the cruelty, or the whimsicality, of a deity or fate. In the first one, a woman —Calínica, who appears, inspires or is mentioned in the other stories— is impregnated by God, who has taken the form of an angel and commands her to abandon her husband. She disobeys and tragedy falls upon her, sentencing her to the pain of a birth that never comes. González Suárez’s imagination, his refined writing, his willingness to stay aside of current trends, of the handy realism of our time, to dive in the deep waters of fantasy, has given rise to exceptional books, such as Nostalgia de la luz.

    Synopsis The pre-Hispanic remains of Mexico City, once the scene of extreme rites of a faith that we still have trouble understanding, are turned into crime scenes by a fanatic who seeks to restore the greatness of the great Tenochtitlan. The enormous metropolis suddenly pulsates to the rhythm of an ancient song that awakens a past of oppression and resistance, of integration and disagreement; the bloody trace of the clash of two worlds. After spending days living as a homeless person to write an investigative piece, Casasola, a reporter for Semanario Sensacional, is driven to follow the trail of The Ritual Killer. Elisa Matos, an archaeologist, hostage to an impulsive and chaotic love life, becomes an indispensable ally during his investigations, but also the object of his desire. Banished gods who refuse to die, characters determined to understand an enigmatic and distant past, authorities who suspect everyone. This novel has already become a classic of Mexican crime fiction in which crime, horror and fantasy literature come together in a thriller full of emotion and suspense.

    Synopsis In the midst of a smallpox outbreak that threatens to decimate the population of a Zapotec community, Lisnit and Néstor must fight to make their professed love for each other possible. Victims of state violence, the lovers deal with the traumas of the anger inflicted on their bodies and their memory. After Hormigas rojas, his celebrated collection of short stories, Pergentino José has written a first novel in which Spanish, inoculated from one language to another – Zapotec – acquires a unique vitality and rhythm. Built from ellipses and fragments, Solo somos sombras is a book about the opacity of memory, the veils that time runs over it and the fate of evanescence to which it condemns us. With a stylistic strategy as risky as it is precise, José offers us the contours of an intense plot; the shadow in which, thanks to its density and lyricism, we are able to recognize urgent issues for our societies: the colonial past, the displacement of entire communities for the extraction of natural resources, the annihilation of non-capitalist cosmogonies and the trauma of dispossession and misery that these processes entail.

He has a trip schedule in mind, but people pester him in the streets and bars, and finally police will arrest him at a little jail behind the medieval walls of Burgos. He will live with criminals that appear to have come from the Lazarillo de Tormes and La Celestina: the cowards and the reckless, the clearheaded that plot and the madmen that scream. But they are all touched by the grace of humanity. And the cruel regression of fascist Spain is inscribed in them.

    THEMA Fiction and Related items
    Synopsis The main idea of ​​Peces del aire altisísimo is that poetry, as a vital impulse and ultimate vocation of a life, is not restricted exclusively to the texts of those who construct it with their incessant work. On the contrary, this inclination towards the construction of new corridors and rooms of our home that is language, extends into the daily life of every poet. Gilberto Owen, Carlos Pellicer, Luis Cernuda, Rubén Bonifaz Núño, Alí ​​Chumacero and Efraín Huerta are some of the poets whose life and work are woven together by Vicente Quirarte in this book, to show that the daily choices, the poet's own habits and obsessions, as well as his vices and virtues, are not only the inexorable consequence of his personality, but extensions of his literary work itself; expansions of the prodigious worlds that they built with their pen. Thanks to the erudition of a committed and passionate reader, but also with the closeness and intimacy of a friend, Quirarte offers wonderful portraits of characters whose words have already found their place as the pinnacles of Mexican literature.

    THEMA Fiction: Traditional stories, myths and fairy tales
    Synopsis Grijalva is a reporter in a world that has gone backwards. In the middle of the 21st century, the Earth has acquired similar rings to those of Saturn after a cataclysm that extinguished electric light and melted the soul of transistors and circuits of all the devices on which humanity relied. Accompanied by her stepson, Grijalva travels to Tamarindo, a town in Veracruz where children suffer from a rare disease: they speak and behave like they are someone different from who they were, possessed by distant and painful stories. The need for an explanation is urgent. There are signs that delirium can be contagious—and disturbing to authorities. As the investigation moves forward, the story reveals what happened to the planet twenty years before, when young Grijalva was in love with her music teacher, and her father, a digital emanation in a meticulous virtual world. What we love and leave behind is much more than an amazing science fiction novel. With intimate and precise language, Elisa de Gortari has written one possible shipwreck, but most importantly, a secret love letter to all the things that give meaning to us: from music and poetry, to the brilliance of the first times and the various, sometimes arduous, ways of taking care of and loving ourselves.
