River of Lies
Something is wrong in the city of La Bene. It’s January, and the midsummer market is in full swing, with a music competition on one side and an exhibit of new magical machines on the other. The atmosphere sours when rumors of the return of the malarial mosquito fairies inflame angry crowds and suspicion of foreigners. Detectives Rocío Díaz Rossi and Hala Haddad Sosa are on the spot when a conflict between an angry crowd and a boat full of despised river folk boils up.

This short novel takes place before the events of Shadow of the City, “A police procedural set in one of the snazziest fantasy settings ever.” — Rachel Neumeier, author of The Floating Islands

Entre sus novelas cabe citar: "Un mundo que agoniza" (1971), "Ser temido, ser amado" (1998), "El policía" (2001), "El largo aliento del león" (2005), "Los trabajos de Lisardo el enamorado" (2007), "El divino suceso" (2008), "Urbi et Orbi" (2010) y "Escrito en el viento" (2011).

Otros enfoques sobre literatura infantil y juvenil
La literatura infantil y juvenil ha sido, en los últimos años, un punto de convergencia para investigadores de diversas disciplinas. La pluralidad de los temas que en ella se encuentran da lugar a una multiplicidad de perspectivas: literarias, lingüísticas, pedagógicas, estéticas, históricas, filosóficas, psicológicas, entre otras. No es solo el análisis del contenido, de la narración y de las ilustraciones lo que nos ha llevado a encontrar un interés particular por el estudio de este tipo de literatura: se trata también del papel que los niños y los adolescentes han tomado y deben tomar en nuestra sociedad. Como integrantes de ésta, nos damos cuenta de que se trata de un grupo que requiere de espacios dentro de un mundo que ha sido construido, en su mayoría, por y para los adultos. Lo anterior nos ha motivado a generar iniciativas que nos permitan construir más para ellos. Otros enfoques sobre literatura infantil y juvenil busca contribuir al diálogo académico en temas relacionados con la literatura infantil y juvenil, y permitir que diversas voces participen en esta conversación tan necesaria para hacer de nuestro mundo un lugar más equilibrado.
