Casablanca la bella
Fernando Vallejo
The rain falls on Casablanca in violent greatness. As if guided by the hand of my lord Satan, water slides down its rooftop breaking tiles, forming lagoons—bubbling in its cursed ire. A single palm tree stands tall at the center of a bright green forecourt while bright white walls frame doors and windows of an earthy brown.

Do you know your roots? Where your parents came from? Why you practice a certain religion? In Las genealogíasMario Glantz follows the trail of his past in a monumental family autobiography that untangles his Central European origins and family’s forced pilgrimage.“My parents were born in a Jewish Ukraine, very different from today’s and even more different to the Mexico I was born in, a Mexico City where I was fortunate to grasp life amidst the peddlers of La Merced, the same peddlers my mother, entirely dressed in white, stared at in wonder.”

La cofradía secreta
Ramón Obón
Born with the plague that ravaged Europe, they are the product of fear, pain and death. They sealed a blood oath and remained in the shadows, like a brotherhood, to confront their enemies. They hid in the catacombs and in the mysterious corridors of the old continent. They’ve been arranged in the Confraternity, hidden in the darkness of history they carry out their task, quietly and effectively. Only their rivals the vampires, the inhabitants of the shadows, are aware of its existence.
