Hardback. Condizione: New. Seventeen short stories by Juan Rulfo, including "Diles que no me maten"Published with Fundación Rulfo.La presente edición limitada conmemora el 70 aniversario de la publicación de la obra de Juan Rulfo. Contiene el texto definitivo de "El Llano en llamas" así como la primera versión del cuento, una edición facsimilar aparecida en 1950 en la revista América. Esta cuidada edición incluye una separata a color con la reproducción de las portadas de diversas traducciones del libro a diferentes lenguas. Impreso el 18 de septiembre de 1953, el libro El Llano en llamas toma el título del cuento más extenso de los diecisiete que contiene.

Hardback. Condizione: New. "Pedro Páramo is one of the best novels of Spanish-language literature, and even of literature." -Jorge Luis BorgesPublished with Fundación Juan Rulfo.Juan Preciado makes a promise to his dying mother that he will travel to the town of Comala in search of his father, the titular character. Instead, Juan encounters a ghost town that relays to him the fragmented history of his father's cruel and violent life, and how he led Comala to ruin. Though met with an unwelcome critical reception in the years after its publication, Pedro Páramo has ascended into the canon of Mexican literature and magical realism writ large, thanks in no small part to its star-studded list of devotees. Gabriel García Márquez called it "the most beautiful novel ever written in the Spanish language," while Susan Sontag proclaimed: "The goal of every writer's life is to produce one great book-that is, an enduring work-and that is what Rulfo achieved."Commemorating the 70th edition of its original publication, this Spanish-language edition of Pedro Páramo includes unmissable archival material, including more than 100 cover designs from translated editions in over 30 languages. A charming black-and-white postcard of Rulfo placed between the pages provides a glimpse into the character and personality of the "father of magical realism."Juan Rulfo (1917-86) was born in the state of Jalisco, Mexico. The corpus of his narrative work is his short story collection El llano en llamas, his novella El gallo de oro and the novel Pedro Páramo. He was a member of the Mexican Academy of Language. In 1983 he received the Prince of Asturias Award for Literature and in 1985 he was named Doctor honoris causa by the National Autonomous University of Mexico.…

Hardback. Condizione: New. "Los geniecillos dominicales", considerada una de las primeras novelas "urbanas" de América Latina, salió a la luz en 1965. En esta novela, las calles de Lima se convierten en el escenario de un joven estudiante de Derecho, Ludo, en plena crisis vital, de confrontación entre la juventud y la madurez, entre una vocación discutible y un futuro incierto. En las primeras líneas de la historia, este protagonista aparece en la oficina, "está aburrido y con sed, por todo eso es que Ludo interrumpe el recurso de embargo que está redactando y lanza un gemido poderoso", renuncia a su trabajo y se dispone a callejear por la ciudad en una especie de aventura iniciática. El gemido que lanza cuando empieza la novela recorre todo el libro hasta su fin. En palabras de otro escritor peruano, Mario Vargas Llosa, "Con esta novela, Ribeyro no sólo ha trazado su biografía espiritual de escritor, ha escrito además el más hermoso de sus libros, el de gloria más cierta y durable".Considered one of the first "urban" novels of Latin America, "Los geniecillos dominicales" was originally published in 1965.

The first page of the novel finds the protagonist in his office, "bored and thirsty, interrupting the writ of seizure he is drafting to heave a powerful sigh." He quits his job and sets out to wander through the city in a sort of initiation. The sigh at the beginning of the novel persists until the very end. In the words of another Peruvian writer, Mario Vargas Llosa, "with this novel, Ribeyro has not only written his spiritual autobiography, but also the most beautiful of his books, destined to sure and lasting glory.".…

Hardback. Condizione: New. Esta antología reúne los textos más característicos de la literatura de Salvador Elizondo, bajo la cuidadosa selección del escritor Daniel Sada, con la intención de adentrar al lector por los mundos que crea el sorprendente narrador mexicano considerado por la crítica como "un escritor para escritores".

Paperback. Condizione: New. A collection of never-before-seen photographs from the Manuel Álvarez Bravo Archive that document a storied neighborhood in Mexico CityPublished with Gato Negro Ediciones/Archivo Manuel Álvarez Bravo.The self-taught Mexican photographer Manuel Álvarez Bravo (1902-2002) is widely regarded as a giant of 20th-century photography. Inspired by the Surrealists' penchant for unexpected relationships found among objects, Bravo's photographs thematically engage with death and mortality through symbolic images of daily life.Pedregal showcases never-before-published photographs from the Manuel Álvarez Bravo Archive. Twenty years after its founding, the ArcMAB continues to promote new interpretations of its holdings and keeps its doors open to researchers and curators interested in engaging with Bravo's work. The selection presented here highlights the photographer's vision of Pedregal, a historic neighborhood in the south of Mexico City. In these images, volcanic stone becomes a territory where memory, modernity and future intertwine, and the monumental coexists with the intimate, revealing the vital force that emerges within a rugged landscape. Supplementing Bravo's photographs are documentary materials related to the neighborhood's development and evolution, such as the construction of Ciudad Universitaria. Pedregal, then, presents a view of the territory that is both personal and collective, fantastical and grounded.…
