The Dangers Of Smoking In Bed Av Mariana Enriquez

SHORTLISTED FOR THE INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE <br/> <br/>'Beautiful, horrible... the most exciting discovery I've made in fiction for some time' Kazuo Ishiguro <br/> <br/>'Smoky, carnal, dazzling' Lauren Groff <br/> <br/>Welcome to Buenos Aires, a place of nightmares and twisted imaginings, where missing children come back from the dead and unearthed bones carry terrible curses. <br/> <br/>Thrumming with murderous intentions, family betrayals and morbid desires, these stories shine a light on a violent city gripped by urban madness; giving voice to the lost, the oppressed and the forgotten. Lucid and darkly poetic, unsettling and otherworldly, these tales of revenge, witchcraft and fetishes are a masterpiece of contemporary Gothic and a bewitching exploration of the dark inclinations that threaten to lead us over the edge. <br/> <br/>'There is some serious power in this writing' Daisy Johnson
