Abstract

This work is a personal inquiry into publishing in Guayaquil, which collects testimonies and data on a field that has given little space to independent and self-managed production, and which points directly to the institutional figure of the Casa de la Cultura Núcleo del Guayas as the main axis of publications for local and national writers. The construction of an intimate memory is the line that unites this research that evidences the case of the publishing house Cadáver exquisito as a unipersonal project that allows us to think about what it means to be an editor, the way in which a catalog is developed, and the tense relations between public instances and private practices where the editorial policies of Ecuador are developed.
