"Things that happen just because, coffees that are thrown in the sink without drinking, toast that is thrown in the…
trash without eating, a protagonist who tries to name his feelings but forces himself not to think in certain directions, a woman who is almost always in the shower or behind other kinds of screens, another woman shows promise but barely scratches the surface, an innocent and slightly cross-eyed girl, a civil servant who goes crazy just when he is reaching his retirement, a boss or two who do and undo as they please, two children who immerse themselves in the PlayStation's twisted reality, the latest television, a comfortable armchair and the best possible coffee maker, the unfulfilled desire to go fishing as a family, an inner escape, a future escape. Santiago Ambao has put all these ingredients in a cocktail shaker and has extracted from it a brilliant story, well shaken and blended, although what makes it even greater is to join it with another parallel, underground story that takes place on the other side of the world, a kind of political and economic plot, a mixture of realism and science fiction, or rather the fruit of a disturbingly visionary realism." -- Translation provided by NLSBy Pedro Cabiya. 2019
"Orishas, saints, luases, demons and angels frolic in a fantastic Puerto Rico that only the fertile imagination of Pedro Cabiya…
could have conceived. Different ministries of the multiverse's administrative bureaucracy compete to recover the valuable extraterrestrial contraband abandoned in Santurce, capital of the Borikwa Republic.... But stealing the loot won't be as easy as they think. Political satire and cosmic parody combine in a web of espionage and action where the great questions of existence share space with the most profane humor, producing a novel that resists classification within the known genres, announcing a new one. Prequel to his immensely popular novel |Trance|, |Third World| promises, like its predecessor, a reading that is impossible to interrupt." -- Translation provided by NLSBy Alberto Chimal. 2019
"In a futuristic dystopian world, civilization as we know it has fallen, even Mexico City, which has been divided into…
a set of kingdoms that maintain a fragile peace and try to survive by taking advantage of leftover technology from another era. In the kingdom of the Center lives Sita, a teenager who, along with her grandmother Lucina, is in charge of maintaining communications at the Fort, the local chief's base. Both live with Celeste: the consciousness of a woman who knew the ancient times and is now stored in a computer. When Sita learns of their plans for her, she decides to make an escape to a better place, but along the way she will encounter dangerous threats from which no one has ever escaped alive." -- Translation provided by NLSBy Tarik Carson. 1991
"Winners is very much science fiction but in the satirical vein begun by Jonathan Swift with Gulliver and so it…
is a magnificent satire of our societies and our desires, but not so that man appears entirely degraded. The quest for beauty remains." -- Translation provided by NLSBy Homero Aridjis. 2011
"A series of events causes the Parisian photographer Nicolas Antschel to become the invisible man and, as a consequence, to…
be threatened and persecuted by groups anxious to steal his secret. To save himself and discover the source of his invisibility, Nicolas will be forced to follow a path of ambiguous clues that will lead him to self-understanding. With this novel, written in a mystical and esoteric key, halfway between science fiction and thriller, with black humor and a renewed picaresque, Homero Aridjis makes the invisible visible: the little things, the big questions, the places we are used to, the signs, the words, the messages erased by time." -- Translation provided by NLSBy Werner Pless. 1989

a la literatura de ese género. Ambientada en un Chile futurista, la triada de personajes femeninos de TRINIDAD desenmascara la podredumbre de un sistema político corrupto. Una mercenaria drogadicta, una niña-máquina con inteligencia artificial y una detective son víctimas de un oscuro proyecto donde se despliegan consolas ouijas, conciencias administradas por el gobierno, secuestro de almas, tráfico de médula infantil, cacerías en el ciberespacio y seres que duermen en las entrañas de anacondas. Todo, hilado con la febril imaginación de Jorge Baradit. Una historia que golpea con imágenes alucinantes que mezclan el cyberpunk más clásico con una visión ocultista y chamánica, un nuevo paradigma literario definido, por académicos y entendidos, como cyberchamanismo.By Kane Banway, María del Carmen Sánchez. 2018
