        El niño que no quiso llorar

        by Jiménez-Barbero, José Antonio

        Again facing his reflection on the mirror, and again the same idea coming to his mind, putting an end to his life. Inside his clenched fist, mum's sleeping pills, his only hope for escaping the hell esecially designed for him by his schoolmates. His little sister's love being his only reason to endure  a life of hardship, Santiago has become, after years suffering the cruellest of bullyings at school, a mere shadow of himself.   Otra vez frente al espejo, y otra vez con la misma idea, quitarse la vida. En el interior de su mano cerrada, las pastillas de dormir de mamá, su única esperanza para escapar del infierno que han fabricado para él sus propios compañeros de colegio. Sin más aliciente para seguir viviendo que el amor por su hermanita Teresa, Santiago se ha convertido, tras años de estar sufriendo acoso en su colegio, en una sombra de sí mismo. La llegada de Lucía, una niña nueva, extraña y diferente, logrará rescatarlo del universo frío e inhóspito en el que vive, y hará renacer en él la esperanza de volver a sonreír. Pero en el colegio, la persecución continúa y Nacho, su principal acosador, no ceja en su empeño de doblegar su espíritu de un forma u otra. Y Santiago, decidido a no dejarse derrotar, acabará transformándose en aquello que más odia.   The arrival of Lucia, a new classmate, different and awkward, will strike some degree of balance in his life, successfully rescuing him from the cold and barren universe he inhabits and triggering a new desire to smile again. But nothing changes at school: the bullying goes on relentlessly and Nacho, the worst bully, won't give up on his whim to break Santiago's spirit one way or the other. But Santiago, firmly determined not to be defeated, will inevitably turn into the thing he hates the most.

        Con tinta en la boca (With ink in the mouth)

        Fotografía documental de Antonio Turok (Documentary photography by Antonio Turok)

        by Anna Susi

        Antonio Turok (1955, Mexico City), emblematic photographer of a generation, has collaborated in different media such as La Jornada, Aperture, Camera Work, Cronica, DoubleTake, Paris Match, Proceso, Stern, The Independent. He received a Guggenheim Fellowship, a grant from the Museum of Photographic Arts in San Diego, and a grant from the Trust for U.S.-Mexico Culture. He was awarded the Mother Jones Fund for Documentary Photography. He is the author of Imágenes de Nicaragua (Casa de las Imágenes, Mexico, 1988) and Chiapas. The End of Silence/El fin del silencio (Fundación Aperture-Ediciones Era, 1998). His presence in the various Central American uprisings of the 1980s led him to forge a sharp and profound look at the human condition, the conflict and armed movements. That is why years later the EZLN trusted him to enter the Chiapas jungle with his camera. Turok belongs to a generation of Latin Americans heir to great photographers such as Álvarez Bravo or Nacho López, of whom he was a student; Turok's generation is an active one that experienced technological and media changes in photography. That is why, historically, artistically and anthropologically, the understanding of the image from Turok's point of view is transcendental.

        Learning to Talk to Plants

        by Marta Orriols

        “Aprendre a parlar amb les plantes” (Learning to Talk to Plants)by Marta Orriols – Debut novel (Literary/Upmarket) Original publisher/language: Ed. del Periscopi (Catalan, 2018)  Rights sold: Lumen (Spanish), Seuil (French), Ponte alle Grazie (Italian), DTV (German), Hakursa/9Lives (Hebrew), Prometheus (Dutch), Sonia Draga (Polish), Dom Quixote (Portuguese, excl Brazil), Pushkin Press (World English), United Sky (Simplified Chinese), Kastaniotis (Greece).   Paula, the narrator and main character, is 40 years old, she’s a neonatologist and she is alive. But her life-long boyfriend Mauro suddenly died in an accident. In the first pages of the novel, we are astonished by the intensity and the precision with which the narrator tells about losing a partner all of a sudden and how, before the accident, death was something so far away from them.    But after a few pages, when we feel we are reading a very good novel about mourning a loved one, a very unexpected revelation comes to light: Only a few hours before he dies, Mauro tells Paula that he is in love with another woman and that their relationship has come to an end. It is at this point when the novel becomes something new, original, powerful and different.   This unexpected death and the previous revelation leave Paula astonished and completely lost. The reader will witness how she walks a path that will confront her with her feelings of rage, fear, desire, grieve and the need to survive and reconstruct herself.   Deeply moving and surprising, Learning to Talk to Plants is a delicate and intimate novel written from the point of view of a woman who needs to come to terms with a life she can no longer recognize.
