What makes Enriquez wholly unique, though, is her specific settings. Enriquez weaves Argentinian politics and culture into each of her stories. Oppression in particular is peppered throughout this collection in multiple passing mentions. Again, the casual nature of the unsettling events in this collection - which are fully based in reality - reminds readers that our own everyday lives can be horrific if we just look hard enough.
Graphic: Physical abuse, Death, Murder, Child death, Injury/Injury detail, and Classism
Moderate: Drug abuse and Sexual assault
