Descriere magazin:
The Mexico we hear of in the news--the drug cartels, migration and senseless violence--is rich soil for
Herrera\'s moving stories of people who live in this reality but also live in the timeless realm of myth, epic and fairy tale, such as the singer Lobo in
Kingdom Cons who loves the drug lord\'s own daughter, Makina who crosses borders to find her brother in
Signs Preceding the End of the
World , and the Redeemer, a hard-boiled hero looking to broker peace between feuding families during a pandemic in The
Transmigration of
Bodies . These three novels get to the heart of the matter in a truly original way. They are storytelling that is at once timely and timeless. About author(s): Born in Actopan, Mexico, in 1970,
Yuri Herrera studied Politics in Mexico, Creative Writing in El Paso and took his PhD in literature at Berkeley. His first novel to appear in English,
Signs Preceding the End of the
World , won the 2016 Best Translated Book Award after publishing to great critical acclaim in 2015, when it featured on many Best-of-Year lists, including The Guardian\'s Best Fiction and NBC News\'s Ten Great Latino Books. His second novel The
Transmigration of
Bodies (2016 in English) and
Kingdom Cons (2017 in English) were also published to acclaim, including the Dublin Literary Award (former Impac prize) shortlisting of The
Transmigration of
Bodies . He currently teaches at the University of Tulane, in New Orleans. A Silent Fury: The El Bordo Mine Fire is his fourth book, and his first of non-fiction. Lisa Dillman has translated a number of Spanish and Latin American writers. Some of her recent translations include Rain Over Madrid, Such Small Hands and The Right Intention by Andrés Barba and
Yuri Herrera \'s four books. She won the 2016 Best Translated Book Award for Herrera\'s
Signs Preceding the End of the
World . She teaches in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia.
