One of the New York Times’ About.com’s choices of the 10 Best Latin American Writers of his time, Jose Ignacio Valenzuela, asks this question: How far would you go for love? That is the premise of To the End of the World, the first book in the internationally acclaimed Malamor Trilogy.
The book was officially presented to the general public this past Saturday, September 1st, at the Coral Gables location of Books & Books, with the support of the Miami Book Fair. “I believe in women, I was urged to write this... I love women”, said Jose Ignacio Valenzuela, referring to the empowering of girls and women through strong, fierce and brave characters as well as their interaction with the well-developed and all-important male counterparts, during the successful launching of To the End of the World, that took place in recent days.
The brainchild of world-renowned author Valenzuela, better known to his fans simply as Chascas, is now a cross-over, available in all platforms to English-speaking audiences and avid readers throughout the world. The trilogy that international audiences couldn’t stop reading has been nothing short of phenomenal. Now, after the long wait, the journey to the end of the world is finally available in all digital platforms and bookstores throughout the nation, from editorial Deletrea Books & Content.
From the packed house Books & Books had on Saturday, Valenzuela had this to say: “I am still overwhelmed by all the people who came to the presentation of "To the end of the world" and who accompanied me to celebrate, in style, the arrival in the US of the Malamor Trilogy. Infinite thanks to Casandra Badillo-Figueroa [Deletrea Books & Content], the best literary accomplice. I am always grateful to the Miami Book Fair and Books & Books, who always support me in my literary follies. And to all who came to accompany me on this new adventure, I will take you forever with me”. He added: “I’ve been dreaming of this presentation since I was a child. My parents who are here with us today, always told us (me and my siblings) that the best gift they could give us was education. So, from a very early age, I learned French in school and spoke Spanish at home. Speaking more than one language defined me as a human being and writer and it showed me that the world was actually very small. Speaking more than one language also allows us to connect with one another, share our cultures and grow as humans. There are no borders when you can communicate with someone who lives in another corner of the world. It’s when you speak more than one language, that the world really becomes your oyster”.

The story of love, betrayal, and fantasy, where a trip to the end of the world becomes the ultimate quest for survival has an intricate and powerful storyline keeps readers at the edge of their seat from beginning to end. To support this important launch among, Valenzuela has already begun a broad media tour throughout the U.S. that will take him to the most prestigious book festivals in the country and on a full-blown press tour in major cities. He explains it is just thrilling for him to get to know new readers, as he writes for them, and especially as he anticipates them discovering the trilogy characters already beloved by audiences in other countries. Aurora Lauzardo and David Gasser were responsible for the translation.
