At this publishing house, we are slow. That’s a fact. However, we manage to publish one book, sometimes two, a year. It’s a process that takes time, crafted hand in hand, going back and forth—like embroidering, sharpening a knife, or practicing one of those ancient crafts. A cycle that begins with trust and method, and then moves into more abstract territories. Exiliados del tiempo lento is a patient book that took its time to come into being. It began long before this publishing project, in another form, space, and reason, only to become a collection of essays gathered ten years after the original book's publication: Escritos para desocupados (Sur+, 2013). Vivian Abenshushan is an interdisciplinary writer based in Mexico. The day she decided to leave her work routine to reclaim her time and right to leisure, she interrupted a cycle of capitalist exploitation to rethink new ways of living, eating, and sleeping. Her brave guerrilla writing against the overwhelming speed, in defense of strategic (almost warlike) slowness, permeates this collection of texts and notes. The process took longer than we expected from start to finish, and thankfully so.

About — We are an independent publishing house that was born in 2018 in Barcelona. No Libros is a reflection on the excess and overproduction of books and texts, the saturation of publications that has occurred in the last decade. It reflects on quality, the current need to produce more, and the advocacy for sharing, recycling, quoting, duplicating, imitating, pirating, and hacking. In the face of large bookstore chains, distributors that increasingly demand higher percentages, print-on-demand (PoD), poet robots, Amazon Mechanical Turk, ChatGPT, the precarity of the market, and interconnected systems that make designers, typographers, publishers, or even writers less necessary, experimental publications, amateur graphics, the supply of paper, and the rescue of artisanal printing processes are gaining importance. No Libros is a slow, tired publishing house, doing the best it can. Our project is collaborative. We seek original, critical content that pushes the boundaries of text and image, resulting in unique works, primarily from Latin authors.
