The Nightmare Box and Other Stories by Cynthia Gómez

4.0

---

These are forthright stories that don’t coddle the reader by over-explaining. It was a thrill to be trusted by the author and a sign of Gómez’s confidence. The title story is great, but “Will They Disappear,” “The Road out of Nowhere,” and “Someone Else’s to Destroy” really gutted me emotionally. I’d be happy to read more of her work.
