Pyromancy (English Edition)
An original, high-caliber thriller, in which Chile’s main port is the ashen witness to lives lost before succumbing once again to the flames. Perhaps this time for good. Pyromancy, the new novel by Gonzalo López Pardo Valparaíso always burns. There has been much speculation about the intentionality of those disasters, without pointing the finger at anyone in particular, although arsonists and drug traffickers are named; so far their presence is a ghostly one. In Piromancy, López Pardo delves into the nooks and crannies of that story and, despite the fear, points to the culprits, believe it or not. López Pardo’s writing presents new airs within genre literature, with a special interest in unraveling forgotten stories and the magic of the end of the world. His references include Borges, Rulfo and Coloane. He also declares his admiration for the anime genius Hayao Miyazaki.
Piromancia (Spanish Edition)
Un suspense original y de alto calibre, donde se mezcla magia ancestral con narcotráfico y en el cual el puerto principal de Chile es el testigo ceniciento de vidas perdidas antes de sucumbir otra vez a las llamas. Quizás esta vez para siempre. Piromancia, la nueva novela de Gonzalo López Pardo. Valparaíso se quema todos los años. Si bien se ha especulado mucho acerca de la intencionalidad de aquellos desastres, sin señalar a nadie en concreto, aunque se nombran pirómanos y narcotraficantes; hasta ahora sus presencias son solo fantasmales. En Piromancia, López Pardo se adentra en los recovecos de aquella historia y a pesar del miedo apunta a los culpables, lo creas o no. Las letras de López Pardo se presentan como un aire nuevo dentro de la literatura de género, con un especial interés por desentrañar historias olvidadas y la magia del fin del mundo. Entre sus referentes destacan Borges, Rulfo y Coloane. Además de declarar admiración por el genio del animé Hayao Miyazaki.
Prettier from above (English Edition)
In these seven stories the mourning for the death of a lover is shown, an unfinished story. Prettier from above, the debut feature of Germán Donoso Coppa These stories talk about death but also tell a world where HIV/AIDS is an unspoken epidemic that people want to think is over, even though it keeps on killing. This is a love story, it is also a story of illness and death, but above all this is a love story. Donoso Coppa’s writing shows a world with many overlapping veils, social class, gender, queerness and love to put together a cocktail that is sometimes hilarious, touching and several times hopeless. In the record of José Donoso and a kind of Lemebel without frills, Donoso Coppa’s pen manages to account for new and old problems of the LGBTQ+ scene.
Desde arriba, la ciudad (Spanish Edition)
7 historias donde se cruzan la clase, el dinero y una enfermedad. Desde arriba, la ciudad, la opera prima de Germán Donoso Coppa. En estos cuentos se narra una muerte, pero también se narra un mundo, donde el VIH/SIDA es una epidemia de la que no se habla y que se quiere dar por concluida, aunque siga matando, vivita y coleando. Esta es una historia de amor, antes que una historia de enfermedad y muerte, antes que una historia sobre clases sociales, esta es una historia de amor. La escritura de Donoso Coppa muestra un mundo con muchos velos que se superponen, clase social, género, queerness y amor para armar un coctel a ratos hilarante, enternecedor y varias veces desesperanzador. En el registro de José Donoso y una especie de Lemebel sin florituras la pluma de Donoso Coppa logra dar cuenta de nuevas y viejas problemáticas de la escena LGBTQ+.
Aquel montón de espejos rotos
“Gonzalo López Pardo indudablemente se siente atraído por lo desconocido, por aquello que resulta difícil de explicar, por la inminencia amenazadora de lo irreconocible, por lo difícil de entender y que, por eso mismo, cautiva”. Héctor Véliz-Meza, escritor y periodista.

Esperanto
Esperanto, spoken by thousands of people across the world, is the most successful international language project. In this book, the French linguist and literary critic Pierre Janton describes the history of Esperanto since its invention in nineteenth-century Eastern Europe and offers a comprehensive linguistic description of the language. This book is the best general introduction to Esperanto and its role in the modern world. Rooted in the populism and internationalism of the late nineteenth century, Esperanto owes its origins in part to western European educational currents and in part to the cultural history of eastern European Jewry. It is a fascinating historical and sociological phenomenon as well as a remarkable linguistic system. The book contains a survey of today's movement for the promotion of Esperanto as an international language, and a description of the extensive literature in Esperanto, both original and translated. Janton also provides a survey of the other global language projects, explaining why Esperanto has prevailed.
