Eloísa Cartonera : Publishing House. Eloísa Cartonera - Publishing House We are Eloísa Cartonera, a work cooperative placed in the neighborhood of La Boca in the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. We produce handmade books with cardboard covers. We purchase this cardboard from the urban pickers ("cartoneros") who pick it from the streets.
Our books are of Latin American literature, the most beautiful we had a chance to read in our lives, both as publishers as well as readers. It all began with the crisis of 2001 - as some say "we are a product of the crisis," or that we "aestheticized misery". Through all this time we rejoice on the fact we were able to put so much love into the work we did. And how much this had to do with you, our dear friends and readers, whom supported us all this time, accepting our books, recommending them, spreading the word, getting in touch, stopping by. We published another book by Rodrigo Rey Rosa, a true jewel in any publisher's catalog. We first started selling both books as well as vegetables.
