Written in sharp, impressionistic prose steeped in horror, Amparo Dávila's stories are tiny nightmares come to life. She is a writer obsessed with obsession, who shows, sometimes in just a few pages, that the narrow line between sanity and madness is even finer than it had seemed at first glance, and that anyone could be one false step away from their doom. Gothic, dark, surrealist, atmospheric, this newly translated selection from the author of The Houseguest "casts a delightful and disconcerting spell" ( Los Angeles Times).
