agat's review against another edition

Flemme et j'ai pas les références pour comprendre vraiment de quoi il s'agit : de l'histoire de l'Argentine. Une fois que je serais plus informée je comprendrai sûrement la profondeur de l'ouvrage et pourrai en reprendre la lecture. Mais pour l'instant ce ne sont que des creepy pastas peu originaux et sans grand intérêt

I have never read a book like this. Horrific, haunting and addictive. I usually don’t love short story collections but that did not put me off with this, I enjoyed the snapshots of disturbed worlds the structure allowed. I thought some stories were stronger than others but each had such a twisted core, I was relentlessly engaged. Some parts were so disgusting, so disturbing I had to put the book down but that was clearly the intention of the author. A very well writing collection and one that will haunt me for a while.
