Founded in 2017, El Mono Libre came about as the editorial name of some fictional creatures whose teachings transcend time. 

The books from El Mono Libre want to be tree branches from which to cross the surrounding jungle with better hearing in order to distinguish voices with which to think, dialog, disagree, remember, smile and, perhaps, dream.

El Mono Libre wants to be a gap of freedom so that the word can occupy empty spaces on a sheet of paper that was a branch, on which monkeys who were men sit. With authors, stories, memories, documents, illustrators, photographers, good writing, curiosity and a great sense of humor, the editor just has to make a clean copy of the findings and look with a torch for readers so as to make them a gift of the pleasure of books.

All that’s needed is a bit of humor and bananas.
