FictionLa hermandad de la Casa Grande (The brotherhood of the Big House)
Una novela negra sobre el juicio del Estado a los brujos de Chiloé (A detective novel about the state's trial of the witches of Chiloé)
by Eduardo Pérez Arroyo
It's 1879. To the north, Chile defends foreign investment in the Pacific War. To the south, beyond the already invaded Araucania, from a large, almost unexplored island, rumors of violence, superstition and a state incapable of enforcing its law spread. The elite would be at ease if some “elements” that are not occupied at the border with Peru penetrated Chiloé. They need evidence to condemn those criminals who terrorize the population with old indigenous beliefs. They call themselves witches. They are organized as La Recta Provincia or La Hermandad de la Casa Grande. They lie to scare and change the names of the cities on the island –Achao, Dalcahue or Quicaví–, confusing them with others: Buenos Aires, Villarrica, Salamanca. If they were only myths, it would be enough for the government to forget that secret place. But the one who calls himself the Greatest Liar in the World claims to have escaped the sorcerers and travels the north glimpsing the aliens: he talks to them of malice, monsters and murders; of the bloody clans' struggles to become a decaying reign. For these lies, or to secure an unstable national pride, coronels and tenants decide to put an end to things that a mortal has no power to finish.

FictionIslas de calor (Heat islands)
by Malu Furche
The climate crisis is out of control. Rising temperatures transform societies and force a radical change in life. The water is a treasure, the shadow a salvation, the night the new day and the day a space forbidden by the touch of military rest. A phenomenon within this chaotic world are the points where buildings and concrete capture heat and prevent its release. These “heat islands”, like the accounts in this book, contain the abandonment and incommunication of those who suffer, the attempts of the population to refresh themselves in any way or the exploitation of the unsalted to survive. As parts of the city rearrange in this hell, a spontaneous fire consumes the hill to the height of the Virgin, unleashing some kind of superstition.
