Galardonado con el Premi Ciutat de Barcelona, 2019 Un viaje espectral entre la vida y la muerte, entre el amor y su pérdida en este impresionante debut de Mateo García Elizondo ? «Vine a Zapotal para morirme de una buena vez. En cuanto puse un pie en el pueblo me deshice de lo que traía en los bolsillos, de las llaves de la casa que dejé abandonada en la ciudad, y de todo el plástico, todo lo que tenía mi nombre o la fotografía de mi rostro. No me quedan más que tres mil pesos, doscientos gramos de goma de opio y un cuarto de onza de heroína, y con esto me tiene que alcanzar para matarme.» El protagonista y narrador de esta novela va en busca de la cita definitiva con la lady en forma de polvo blanco, y para ello emprende un viaje al final de la noche en el que se sucederán encuentros con personajes inquietantes, con los fantasmas de los amigos muertos por el camino, con los recuerdos de la gran ciudad que ha dejado atrás y con su propio pasado. La primera frase de la novela evoca el mítico inicio del Pedro Páramo de Rulfo, y hay en sus páginas ecos del grotesco carnaval mexicano de autodestrucción de Bajo el volcán de Malcolm Lowry. Con una prosa envolvente e hipnótica, Mateo García Elizondo narra, en este asombroso y extraordinario debut, un viaje al corazón de las tinieblas, el espectral descenso a los infiernos de un adicto que se adentra en una senda con un único destino posible, que está cada vez más cerca.

A junkie looking for one last fix in a town full of ghosts . This is a ghost story. A junkie has gone to El Zapotal to die – to rent a room in this crumbling backwater, melt into one last fix, and not come back. For someone so ready to no longer be alive, though, he can’t stop clinging to the past. His old dog, Kid, who he abandoned. His love, Valerie, who he introduced to drugs. There’s no such thing as a good memory. El Zapotal doesn’t want him either. The people aren’t welcoming, the streets are empty except for strays, and he’s having trouble pacing his supply. As the drugs run out, the line between what’s real and what’s not blurs to the point of illegibility, and we’re left wandering a tenderly described hinterland of despair, hunger, and regret. García Elizondo has given us an homage to Pedro Páramo , a descent for the ages, a long goodbye with no clear line between the living and dead.

"Juan Pablo Villalobos's fifth novel adopts a gentle, fable-like tone, approaching the problem of racism from the perspective that any position as idiotic as xenophobia can only be fought with sheer absurdity. In an unnamed city, occupied by an unnamed world power, an immigrant named Gastón makes his living selling exotic vegetables to eateries around the city. He has a dog called Kitten, who's been diagnosed with terminal cancer, and a good friend called Max, who's in a deep depression after being forced to close his restaurant. Meanwhile, Max's son, Pol, a scientist away on a scientific expedition into the Arctic, can offer little support. Gastón begins a quest, or rather three: he must search for someone to put his dog to sleep humanely; he must find a space in which to open a new restaurant with Max; and he must look into the truth behind the news being sent back by Pol: that human life may be the by-product of an ancient alien attempt at colonization . . . and those aliens might intend to make a return visit."--Provided by publisher.

Un jeune homme s’installe à Zapotal, un village perdu au fin fond du Mexique en lisière de la jungle. Il emporte avec lui d’impressionnantes réserves d’opium et d’héroïne pour en finir avec la vie et un cahier dans lequel il entreprend de raconter les derniers instants de son existence. Hanté par des visions et des souvenirs, il oscille entre la vie et la mort dans les limbes magiques du demi-sommeil et de la drogue, se promène au hasard et découvre le Rincón de Juan, un bar où convergent les âmes perdues et où ivrognes et prostituées lui apprennent à fumer des scorpions pour se sevrer. Mais les trous de mémoire se multiplient, les réserves de drogue s’étiolent, le manque se fait plus fort et la mort s’approche inéluctablement. À moins qu’il ne soit déjà passé de l’autre côté et que cela ne ressemble en rien à ce qu’il avait pu imaginer... Mateo García Elizondo (Mexico,1987) est romancier et scénariste.

The Cat Who Saved Books is a heartwarming story about finding courage, caring for others – and the tremendous power of books. 'Enchanting' – Observer __________ Grandpa used to say it all the time: Books have tremendous power. But what is that power really? Natsuki Books was a tiny second-hand bookshop on the edge of town. Inside, towering shelves reached the ceiling, every one crammed full of wonderful books. Rintaro Natsuki loved this space that his grandfather had created. He spent many happy hours there, reading whatever he liked. It was the perfect refuge for a boy who tended to be something of a recluse. After the death of his grandfather, Rintaro is devastated and alone. It seems he will have to close the shop. Then, a talking tabby cat called Tiger appears and asks Rintaro for help. The cat needs a book lover to join him on a mission. This odd couple will go on three magical adventures to save books from people who have imprisoned, mistreated and betrayed them. Finally, there is one last rescue that Rintaro must attempt alone . . . Sosuke Natsukawa’s international bestseller, translated from Japanese by Louise Heal Kawai, is a story for those for whom books are so much more than words on paper.
