En esta edición se realiza una revisión de los sucesos sociales y económicos de México durante el primer semestre de 2021, luego de que fueron levantadas las restricciones sanitarias y se incrementó la movilidad e interacción social en el territorio nacional. Durante ese periodo, el país se mantuvo entre los cuatro primeros lugares con más defunciones en el planeta por covid-19 (iniciamos 2022 en el quinto lugar). Se recuerda fraternalmente a Felipe Alatorre, quien figuró como editor de Análisis Plural hasta principios de 2021.

Con una mirada crítica al pasado reciente de lo ocurrido en el año 2020, esta edición destaca el trabajo de la comunicación pública para combatir la crisis epistemológica que enfrentó la sociedad durante el inicio de la pandemia por la covid-19. Mediante su análisis de la agenda pública revela, que aunque muchas realidades sociales fueron desplazadas de las agendas de los medios para dar cabida a información coyuntural de orientación sobre la pandemia, hubo otras que prevalecieron, como las manifestaciones feministas en Guadalajara. Y, así como va descubriendo las distorsiones que algunos medios hicieron en sus coberturas, también documenta las nuevas formas de hacer periodismo ...

Nadie duda de que los primeros seis meses de este 2020 han sido diciles, no solo para México sino para el mundo entero. La inesperada pandemia de covid–19 ha puesto en jaque a todas las economías del mundo y ha afectado a todas las esferas de la vida. Que hay países que han aplicado mejores medidas de contención contra el coronavirus es cierto, y que otros aún se debaten entre la ineptitud y la desesperación ante la cantidad de muertes y el desplome de sus economías, pero ninguno ha dejado de desear que esta pesadilla pase cuanto antes. En este contexto, los contenidos de esta edición responden a preguntas urgentes: ¿cómo podrá recuperarse la economía? ¿se han vulnerado los de...

'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

The Mosquito Bite Author

Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.

Home Reading Service

In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...

A previously untranslated classic of Portuguese feminist literature originally published in 1978, Carvalho's Empty Wardrobes introduces English-speaking readers to a forgotten and underappreciated woman writer a la recent publishing sensations Lucia Berlin, Natalia Ginzburg, Ingeborg Bachmann, Silvina Ocampo, and Armonia Somers. Empty Wardrobes is a tightly plotted, highly entertaining read, that, thanks to an ingenious detached narrative technique (one that makes the plot all the more fun to revisit and rethink), is both darkly humorous and devastatingly true.
