Story
Juan Villoro relata en La figura del mundo, el orden secreto de las cosas, algunos pasajes memoriosos en torno a su padre, el pensador mexicano-catalán, Luis Villoro. Sin el afán de hacer una biografía en estricto sentido, Juan evoca aquí la vida singular de quienfuera filósofo, luchador social, zapatista y autor de una obra fundamental. En este libro hace una aproximación a una figura a la vez íntima y pública, adentrándose en las complejidades que toda vida tiene, narrando con maestría instantes que se desdoblan para entender el ubicuo presente.

Story
Horizontal Vertigo: The title refers to the fear of ever-impending earthquakes that led Mexicans to build their capital city outward rather than upward. With the perspicacity of a keenly observant flâneur, Juan Villoro wanders through Mexico City seemingly without a plan, describing people, places, and things while brilliantly drawing connections among them.

Story
Thirteen-year-old Juan’s summer is off to a terrible start. First, his parents separate. Then, almost as bad, Juan is sent away to his strange Uncle Tito’s house for the entire break! Who wants to live with an oddball recluse who has zigzag eyebrows, drinks 15 cups of smoky tea a day, and lives inside a huge, mysterious library? As Juan adjusts to his new life among teetering, dusty shelves, he notices something odd: the books move on their own! He rushes to tell Uncle Tito, who lets his nephew in on a secret: Juan is a Princeps Reader, which means books respond magically to him.

Diego González es un documentalista que habla dormido. Está casado con una sonidista que trata de descifrar lo que dice en sueños. Se muda a Barcelona, pero el pasado lo alcanza como una pesadilla. La visita de un viejo conocido, el periodista Adalberto Anaya, trastoca su reciente tranquilidad. Anaya - quien ha vigilado a Diego durante años con la atención casi desmedida de un admirador - lo culpa de haber hecho un documental para entregar a un narco.

Story
Un mariachi con serios conflictos de identidad, duelos entre escritores que se remontan a belicosos encuentros juveniles en talleres de escritura, correos electrónicos enviados desde planos de la existencia un tanto inciertos, la odisea contracultural de un padre para congraciarse con su hija, múltiples modalidades de esa variación del masoquismo conocida como romance. Los cuentos de esta antología fueron seleccionados personalmente por el autor; condensan las técnicas, estrategias y motivos narrativos de una de las trayectorias literarias más destacadas de la actualidad.

Story
Sin apartarse del principio conductor de Dios es redondo - «el futbol es la recuperación de la infancia» - los retratos y las crónicas de Balón dividido abarcan a las figuras recientes del balompié actual - Piqué, Messi, Pep Guardiola, Cristiano Ronaldo, los hermanos Boateng - y, entre extraordinarias conexiones con la literatura, la historia y la psicología, como Juan Villoro nos ha acostumbrado, calienta el ambiente para los numerosos y encendidos debates que el futbol siempre concede, sobre todo en años mundialistas.
