Many were able to gain their freedom, others remained enslaved. They were also protagonists of the different processes of Independence that began to be experienced after 1810. Although historiography tends to take away the visibility of their presence, they are still there, and their existence brings us back to a series of questions that allow us to recover the original complexity of those events. foreign rights contact Andrés Telesca E-mail andres.telesca@editorialsb.com -

Pajarito
Read moreTitle Pajarito Author Ulloa Donoso, Claudia Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851157 Edition number 2 Publication year 2022 Pages 160 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis Pajarito works like a collector's cabinet, a display of small artifacts treasured for the uniqueness of their details, gathered according to a very personal taxonomy. Coat racks that are immense men, words that fall like shavings in a sawmill, trees that with their strength provoke the fury of the wind, a sea contained in a plastic bottle, sheets stained with secrets; with these elements, stories are told starring men and women whose character does not fit with the cold schedules of productivity and the routes they find to escape from it. They are vivid snapshots of loneliness and foreignness through which both the latent fatality in our lives and the capacity of language to endow it with other meanings appear. The stories in this collection find their greatest power in the irruption of a poetic imaginary in the details of the most routine everyday life. In their brevity and precision, they propose continuous escapes towards the territories of the lyrical and unexpected. There is in this book an insistent invitation to look around us with different eyes, to seek and put into practice the subtle – and often cruel – sensitivity of Claudia Ulloa Donoso. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
