Product Information

A brilliant anthology of short fiction from twenty of the most exciting writers under 40 in Mexico today, as chosen by the Hay Festival and Mexican National Council for Culture and Arts, with an introduction by the Booker Prize-winner DBC Pierre. To celebrate the Year of Mexico in the UK and the Year of the UK in Mexico in 2015, Hay Festival, the British Council and Conaculta have joined forces to bring twenty young writers under the age of forty to an international readership. Selected by experts Juan Villoro, Guadalupe Nettel and Cristina Rivera Garza, these exciting new voices come together in an anthology of short fiction and non-fiction pieces, outlining the contours of Mexico's outstanding literary culture. Following in the footsteps of the likes of Octavio Paz and Carolos Fuentes, the writers capture an era of shifting boundaries and growing violence, where the country's rapid modernization is often felt to be at the cost of its artistic heritage. Broken families, a man in a birdcage, a lone swimmer - all stories betray a quest for the self when the feeling of loss pervades. Pushkin Press is proud to present these vibrant and often disturbing narratives which will not leave the reader unmoved.
