Las editoriales independientes se mantienen fieles a la nueva literatura local y dan una oportunidad a manuscritos valiosos de escritores desconocidos. Por supuesto, nadan a contracorriente. En un sistema que favorece a los grandes consorcios, ¿cómo sobrevivirán a los recortes y movimientos presupuestales en el sector cultural?, ¿qué estrategias debe poner en marcha una editorial independiente para mantenerse a flote? Con Astrid López, escritora, editora y una de las fundadoras de Ediciones Antílope.

"Los mecanismos del recuerdo es un asunto que me inquieta mucho" Isabel Zapata (CDMX, 23 abr 1984) nos hace reflexionar sobre los mecanismos de la memoria, su relación con la fotografía y lo que queda o no atrapado en ella, su preocupación sobre los animales, la edición y la lectura como actividades colectivas, la traducción, y su pasión por Montaigne.
