Murió la Flor by Daniela Ruiz De Esparza, Doppelgänger by Jessica Panchi Pacheco, Snake Year by Pedro Resendez, Más Allá del Otro by Sujey Singh Alfaro and Espere Luz Verde by Raul Guillermo & Sofia Hidalgo
These books come together through a longing for home, and through the impossibility of returning to it unchanged. In these pages you’ll find writing behind photographs, stills from YouTube, moving bicycles, empty kitchens and crowded buses. Identity loosens as it multiplies, disperses, mutates, performs.
The selection traces the persistence of departure, the unresolved emotions that remain attached to places of origin.
Ghosts from Mexico City, Santiago, Lima, Punjab and South London are points of reference for gathering what reappears: the double, the wound, the archive, the lover, the city, the home that keeps moving.
