Seis relatos violentos de autores mexicanos: Alberto Chimal, Erika Mergruen, Yuri Herrera, Isai Moreno, Ursula Fuentesberain, Lorea Canales "En cada una de las historias prevalece la originalidad y el gozo de la escritura, rasgos que distinguen a los autores, pero tambien esta presente la violencia, movil de cada uno de los relatos y que fue la consigna bajo la cual mi amigo Omar Villasana -compilador de la edicion- convoco a los narradores... Esta misma antologia se publicara como e-book, termino al que todavia no me acostumbro pero me llena de alegria al saber que circulara de web en web y miles de internautas disfrutaran mas alla de las fronteras, algo tan necesario en los tiempos actuales cuando algunos se afanan por levantar muros y cerrar puertas." Elena Poniatowska Amor Six violent short stories from mexican authors: Alberto Chimal, Erika Mergruen, Yuri Herrera, Isai Moreno, Ursula Fuentesberain, Lorea Canales "Originality and the joy of writing abound in these stories, features that define each of these writers. Also present is violence, the thread that runs through each of these stories and serves as the watchword around which my friend Omar Villasana-the editor of this edition-has brought together each of these authors... This anthology will also be published as an e-book, a term to which I am still not accustomed but one that fills me with joy, knowing that it will circulate from web to web and that thousands of Internet users will be able to enjoy beyond the confines of physical borders, something so necessary in modern times when there are those who strive to build walls and close doors." Elena Poniatowska Amor

A strange, dark collection, these six short stories - many of them very short indeed - run the gamut in subject and style, drawn together by national setting and by the threads of violence that race through each piece.
