About this book

Español

Los viajeros

En México, la ciencia ficción es a menudo mal comprendida. ¿De qué puede tratar?, preguntan los escépticos. ¿De mariachis en el espacio? ¿De Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz viajando en el tiempo? Quizá, pero no son ese tipo de historias las que encontrará el lector en estas páginas. Aunque la primera obra conocida de ciencia ficción mexicana data de 1775, los perpetradores del subgénero han tenido que publicar su trabajo a salto de mata, siempre desde los margenes. Con raras excepciones los narradores de lo imaginativo han conformado un gremio fantasmal, casi una leyenda urbana.

English

The Travelers

In Mexico, science fiction is often misunderstood. What can it be about, the skeptics ask. Mariachis in space? Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz traveling through time? Perhaps, but those are not the kind of stories the reader will find in these pages. Although the first known work of Mexican science fiction dates from 1775, the perpetrators of the subgenre have had to publish their work by leaps and bounds, always from the margins. With rare exceptions, the storytellers of the imaginative have formed a ghostly guild, almost an urban legend.
