Mis cuentos favoritos fueron "la casa de Adela", "nada de carne sobre nosotras", "bajo el agua negra". "Bajo el agua negra" me recordó a Lovecraft y me gustó esta referencia.
Quisiera leer "los peligros de fumar en la cama" que dicen que es aún mejor.
Odié el final de "el patio del vecino" Trigger warning por tener escenas de maltrato animal.

4.5
The wraiths of Argentina's violent past appear in her stories, but ultimately Enriquez's literature is not tied to any time or place. Rather, it appeals to ancient, creeping fears that prowl our subconscious, and that, in the worst of times, are acted out on our political stage.
This is horror as horror should be--real, beautifully written, gruesome, political, and riding the border between supernatural and natural terrors. What a collection, I had a great time.
