Bavispe
Read moreTitle Bavispe Author Carlos René Padilla Publisher Editorial NitroPress Imprint Nitro/Press ISBN 9786078805044 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 112 Format Printed THEMA Crime and mystery: hard-boiled crime, noir fiction; Adventure fiction: Westerns; Contemporary horror and ghost stories Synopsis Winner of the national «Fuentes Mares» Prize, 2022. The same as Comala, Bavispe is a small town crushed by the heat and an apparent monotony which stories are transformed by Carlos René Padilla into unforgettable narratives inhabited by ghosts and living beings willing to take away our calm while reading. Padilla makes use of a language that is often poetic and at the same time rooted in orality to narrate a variety of rural dramas that go from the presence of ghosts in the streets to the violence of revenge, that seem to update the narrative of Juan Rulfo. foreign rights contact Lilia Barajas Martínez E-mail editorial.nitropress@gmail.com -

El hombre mal vestido
Read moreTitle El hombre mal vestido Author Fadanelli, Guillermo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078667406 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 264 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Esteban Arévalo is a man who dresses badly. This would not be of great importance if it were not for the fact that the disheveled appearance of his worn-out old clothes – which he continues to wear out of conviction, not necessity – arouses the deepest distrust among his neighbors in the Tacubaya neighborhood: rumors point to him as the main suspect of having committed eight murders. Blaise Rodríguez, the narrator of this story, is determined to prove Esteban Arévalo’s innocence. Contrary to the roughness that people expect from a guy who takes so little care in his attire, the protagonist is rather kind, polite and quite cultured. Would it be possible for a man with no major existential aspirations and who remains gentle even when he is treated with rejection to become a cruel murderer? What would be his reasons for killing? The Badly Dressed Man poses a critical reflection on murder, intolerance and fear of difference, in a present of extreme violence where physical appearance takes on radical importance as a crucible of status, identity and class aspirations. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx
