Fears turn over ourselves, our destructive capacity and the limits of what is allowed because we are convinced that an optimistic perspective of progress is now incompatible with a viable future. More than ever, we need to look for evil in our actions and their consequences. Illness, aging and death constitute the most fearsome of the trilogies for human beings. These stories place us in the main characters' perspectives and awaken our survival instincts to remind us that the monster is just around the corner. foreign rights contact Oswaldo Muñoz, Quetzalli de la Concha E-mail oswaldo.munoz@penguinrandomhouse.com; quetzalli.delaconcha@penguinrandomhouse.com -

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 -

Relatos de la noche
Read moreTitle Relatos de la noche Author Uriel Reyes Publisher Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial Imprint Suma ISBN 9786073836203 Edition number 1 Publication year 2023 Pages 160 Format Printed THEMA Fiction: Traditional stories, myths and fairy tales Synopsis Is sound more piercing than silence?

When the sun sets, these things undergo a literal and metaphorical metamorphosis that pushes us unto a suffocating fear. These events should only be whispered, so as not to summon something terrible. These stories remain unexplained and avoided, as you might wish you never encounter yourself with such events. foreign rights contact Oswaldo Muñoz, Quetzalli de la Concha E-mail oswaldo.munoz@penguinrandomhouse.com; quetzalli.delaconcha@penguinrandomhouse.com
