Cuarto de hotel
Read moreTitle Cuarto de hotel Author Coral Bracho Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456332 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 64 Format Printed THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis Which room? Which hotel? The readers of this round and intriguing book will ask themselves; a book whose simple strokes and complex effects recall the watercolors that integrate into the whiteness of paper to transmit the surprise of the work of art. The room is oneself; the room is the world; it is memory or identity; or it is, in fact, a hotel room, or a hospital room; or a country. Whatever the answer or the sum of answers is, this book is an allegory of our fleeting nature and of the temporary condition of a repeatedly warlike and wrecked world. This book was translated into French and published by Éditions Al Manar in 2015. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -
Marfa, Texas
Read moreTitle Marfa, Texas Author Coral Bracho Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074454000 Edition number 1 Publication year 2015 Pages 80 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis One place: Marfa, in the state of Texas, and a foreign sight that goes all over it calmly, stopping only the time required. Three trees, a cypress, a juniper and a pine tree are the magnetized cores around which things happen: the wandering trucks, a long, unforgettable train as an “animal that flees”; voices of children and birds, insects, the thin grass, some dishes, flowers at times, a window from which someone takes detailed notes of all of these, transforming each line in a life testimony foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -
Debe ser un malentendido
Read moreTitle Debe ser un malentendido Author Coral Bracho Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074455137 Edition number 1 Publication year 2018 Pages 100 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis This is a memorable book about forgetfulness. It is centered on Alzheimer’s disease and its poems talk about it, but also from within. Its author has also given voice to her uncomfortable silences and has tried to move closer to those spaces to unravel them and make them visible; spaces seemingly remote and unbelievable, that in one way or another concern us, belong to us all. This book was translated into English and published by New Directions and by Carcanet Press in 2022. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

Sombras detrás de la ventana. Cuentos reunidos. Nueva edición ampliada
Read moreTitle Sombras detrás de la ventana. Cuentos reunidos. Nueva edición ampliada Author Eduardo Antonio Parra Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456301 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 600 Format Printed THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis Only a few times in the history of Mexican literature has an author become, at such a young age, a classic. Violence, a worn-out theme in our country’s narrative due to decades of rhetorical abuse, melodramatic routine and ideological blackmail, is reinvented in Parra’s stories as a literary theme, as if all the forms of cruelty and defenselessness were, to him, brand new. The publication of these Cuentos reunidos makes justice to this fact. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

Nostalgia de la luz
Read moreTitle Nostalgia de la luz Author Mario González Suárez Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074455144 Edition number 1 Publication year 2018 Pages 90 Format Print and digital 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. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

In García Bergua’s narrative, always calm in its exhibition, the melancholy and humorousness of human lives surface, intertwined. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -
Grey
Read moreTitle Grey Author Alberto Chimal Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9789684116603 Edition number 1 Publication year 2011 Pages 96 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis In Grey, Alberto Chimal has decided to go from being heterodox to iconoclastic and heretic. And with his journey he shows that every sacred text is a style exercise, a combination of rules that when understood permit the game, the joy, the infinite happiness of subversive change. In this unclassifiable book one can hear, along with the voices of the city and its infinite mixture of classes, the never-ending libraries of language and languages, the open contamination of the most vulgar media and the thundering prophecies of a new century of excellent literature. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -
Gente del mundo
Read moreTitle Gente del mundo Author Alberto Chimal Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074453416 Edition number 1 Publication year 2014 Pages 122 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary Synopsis It could be that Gente del mundo is merely a residue, a ruin, what remains of a myriad of civilizations. A handful of short texts, where in a crucial gesture a whole culture is sketched. A collection of illustrations that produce an allegoric image of an entire population. Alberto Chimal is Calvino’s and Borges’ best reader of the latest years because instead of admiring them in quote form, he focuses on reimagining. In an environment oversaturated with fidelity to the press, this book shows up and refreshes the literary scene. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx
