Daniel Saldaña París’ latest novel,
EL BAILE Y EL INCENDIO,
Finalist in the 39th Premio Herralde de Novela
​
EL BAILE Y EL INCENDIO is an extraordinary literary piece deeply connected to our zeitgeist. In a doomed city, surrounded by fires and covered in ashes, the paths of three estranged friends cross again after many years apart. Natalia, Erre, and Conejo's friendship triangle dissolved in their teens but their bond never completely faded away. They all remember each other's dreams, aspirations, and desires, which means they know how they all have failed. Each of them will recount the days in which Natalia is creating a ground-breaking choreography that will shake Cuernavaca's cultural establishment; Erre embraces denial with a new mind-blowing drug for his crippling pain and Conejo continues feasting on the conspiracy theories of what happens in the city. And once again they perform their unique dance, a choreography of paths that never meet.

Their present lives and past recollections, their desperate search for a way out of themselves but not of the flames, portray the transition from youth to adulthood. EL BAILE Y EL INCENDIO confirms Daniel Saldaña París’ literary talent and originality, his ability to ascertain the most obscure aspects of human nature with his trademark humor and unpretentious erudition.

On identity, origins, and love: Gabriela Wiener's journey to intersections 

Right sold to: Spain & Latin America (Literatura Random House), USA (HarperVia), UK (Pushkin Press), Brazil (Todavia), France (Métailié), and Italy (La Nuova Frontiera)

This is the history of a territory and of a bastard lineage, and how desire, identity, guilt, and love are profoundly affected by generations of absent fathers.
This book demolishes the founding father figure in order to pick open wounds –historical, colonial, and intimate though not individual- and to contribute to an ongoing conversation about racism, decolonization and relations. And the extra treat of this book is Gabriela Wiener's sense of humour.

High in the mountains of northern Tenerife, the sun hides behind a seemingly endless ceiling of cloud cover that traps the region's inhabitants in an abject, infernal heat. There, in a ramshackle village far from the island's glamorous beach resorts, two adolescent girls pass a treacherous summer in each other's all-consuming company.

Written in the pizzicato of Canary dialect and striking a gorgeous, crystal pitch, Dogs of Summer is a novel of terrifying power and exquisite yearning. It is a visceral, sublime story about beauty - and love - forged in an essential but neglected corner of the world.

After the acclaimed essay EL HAMBRE, Martín Caparrós is back with ÑAMERICA. ​

 ÑAMERICA is an ambitious narrative non-fiction essay in the search of answers about Latin America.

ÑAMERICA is a research and a search of what 19 countries with a shared language have in common. Do they constitute a region?

​Combining narrative journalism, travel chronicles, interviews, and essays Martín Caparrós crumbles cliché and folklore and takes up the task to depict the real ÑAMERICA.

Rights sold to: Spain & Latin America (Literatura Random House), France (Gallimard), Italy (Einaudi), Poland (Wydawnictwo Literackie)
