        El baile de la abuela muerta (Dead grandma's dance)

        by Elina Malamud

        A hundred years of history from two branches of a Jewish family, set against the backdrop of Tsarist Russia, from the early 19th century to their migration to Argentina in the early 20th century. It's not just the tradition of the Jews from Eastern Europe, but a vivid portrayal of the characters that inhabited this complex and diverse society of declining nobility, gypsies, and Bolsheviks. Clandestine loves, uprisings, and persecutions are described with nostalgic detail, alongside an unexpected display of Hasidic humor and magic.

        La hermandad de la Casa Grande (The brotherhood of the Big House)

        Una novela negra sobre el juicio del Estado a los brujos de Chiloé (A detective novel about the state's trial of the witches of Chiloé)

        by Eduardo Pérez Arroyo

        It's 1879. To the north, Chile defends foreign investment in the Pacific War. To the south, beyond the already invaded Araucania, from a large, almost unexplored island, rumors of violence, superstition and a state incapable of enforcing its law spread. The elite would be at ease if some “elements” that are not occupied at the border with Peru penetrated Chiloé. They need evidence to condemn those criminals who terrorize the population with old indigenous beliefs. They call themselves witches. They are organized as La Recta Provincia or La Hermandad de la Casa Grande. They lie to scare and change the names of the cities on the island –Achao, Dalcahue or Quicaví–, confusing them with others: Buenos Aires, Villarrica, Salamanca. If they were only myths, it would be enough for the government to forget that secret place. But the one who calls himself the Greatest Liar in the World claims to have escaped the sorcerers and travels the north glimpsing the aliens: he talks to them of malice, monsters and murders; of the bloody clans' struggles to become a decaying reign. For these lies, or to secure an unstable national pride, coronels and tenants decide to put an end to things that a mortal has no power to finish.

        Diario de un defensor de pibes chorros (Journal of a juvenile delinquent's defender)

        by Julian Axat

        This book chronicles Julián's journey to his role as a juvenile defender in the province of Buenos Aires, from which they sought to oust him through harassment and political trials. Others would follow the path he paved: those trained by him, officials and defenders who, witnessing his work, learned to commit to the adolescents and their heart-wrenching stories that he brought to light and presents to us again in these tales.

        Islas de calor (Heat islands)

        by Malu Furche

        The climate crisis is out of control. Rising temperatures transform societies and force a radical change in life. The water is a treasure, the shadow a salvation, the night the new day and the day a space forbidden by the touch of military rest. A phenomenon within this chaotic world are the points where buildings and concrete capture heat and prevent its release. These “heat islands”, like the accounts in this book, contain the abandonment and incommunication of those who suffer, the attempts of the population to refresh themselves in any way or the exploitation of the unsalted to survive. As parts of the city rearrange in this hell, a spontaneous fire consumes the hill to the height of the Virgin, unleashing some kind of superstition.

        Tagesnotizen

        Aufzeichnungen 1941–1992

        by Günther Anders, Volker Hage, Volker Hage

        Die Tagebücher des Schriftstellers und Philosophen Günther Anders (1902–1992) zählen zu den bedeutendsten literarischen Journalen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Seine zahlreichen, Jahrzehnte übergreifenden Notizen, von ihm selbst nie zu einem geschlossenen Werk zusammengestellt, sondern bruchstückhaft in verschiedenen seiner Bücher zitiert (so auch in seinem Hauptwerk Die Antiquiertheit des Menschen): Hier werden sie nun erstmals – in exemplarischer Auswahl – chronologisch angeordnet und zusammengestellt. Anders, der eigene schriftstellerische Projekte zeitlebens zurückstellte und als Warner vor einer neuen Atomkatastrophe international bekannt wurde, hat wie kein zweiter Autor deutscher Sprache die Erfahrungen von Flucht, US-Exil, Heimkehr ins Nachkriegseuropa und seine Eindrücke von Reisen zu Schauplätzen des Grauens wie Auschwitz und Hiroshima darzustellen gewußt.
