For fans of Samanta Schweblin and Mariana Enríquez, Agustina Bazterrica is another Argentine powerhouse of feminist literary horror. Much like her counterparts, Bazterrica uses horror to talk about violence against women, in many forms. This well-rounded collection includes twenty unique and memorable stories touching on relationships, desire, Catholicism, control, endings, and more. These stories are bold and breathtaking, dripping with blood.
