En la tierra mágica del peyote
Read moreTitle En la tierra mágica del peyote Author Fernando Benítez Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9789684116344 Edition number 1 Publication year 2008 Pages 192 Format Print and digital THEMA Social groups: religious groups and communities Synopsis In this book Benítez shows us how the huichol people, by repeating in their mystical pilgrimage to the San Luis Potosí desert the sacred hunt made by the gods in the primary time, aspire to become contemporary to their gods.

A cada cual su cielo
Read moreTitle A cada cual su cielo Author Fabio Morábito Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074456110 Edition number 1 Publication year 2020 Pages 120 Format Printed THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis A cada cual su cielo is written, in a way, against the idea of importance. Minimal situations acquire an unexpected superiority: the poet has expanded his method of looking at things in such a way that he can’t find considerable differences between them. The feet of Turkish women; bed sheets hung up at the rooftop that free us from the idea of God; the consent to lose a tooth for each well-written poem are some of the glimmers that strike the poet from different angles, forcing him to dig every time in a new direction to find meaning in his life. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

La calle blanca
Read moreTitle La calle blanca Author David Huerta Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9789684116672 Edition number 1 Publication year 2006 Pages 120 Format Printed THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis This book is at once a poetic ethics, a philosophy of knowledge, a reflection on the unhinging of perception; one, or rather many poetic theories, some cryptic, some that mock themselves, some completely unexpected. It is also, in every way, a parable about words, their mysteries and miracles, and a genealogy and archaeology of thought foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -
Incurable
Read moreTitle Incurable Author David Huerta Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074455120 Edition number 2 Publication year 2018 Pages 389 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis The poet faces the words, the multiple and profound meaning of words, and transcribes the insatiable telegram of the Incurable: the one that now understands it all, the one that throws into the abyss of love all the passion and all the joyfulness of language. Incurable is more than a great poem: it is a lesson in intimacy with inspiration and in the full command of form. First published in 1987, today it is a classic masterpiece in Mexican literature. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx -

Read moreTitle El ovillo y la brisa Author David Huerta Publisher Ediciones Era Imprint – ISBN 9786074455007 Edition number 1 Publication year 2018 Pages 133 Format Print and digital THEMA Modern and contemporary poetry Synopsis Prose’s appetites were defined against the dark background of poetical rhythms and they never abandoned them fully; they searched for their own horizons, their own laws and ways of assuming a memory and a tenacious will of form. This is how poetic prose and prose poems were born. This book insatiably looks for the horizon in which it is to be read. It finds it just to lose it a few moments later. foreign rights contact Michelle Pérez Lobo E-mail michelle@edicionesera.com.mx
