trending ! Nineteen Claws And A Blackbird by Agustina Bazterrica (Paperback)

From celebrated author Agustina Bazterrica, this collection of nineteen brutal, darkly funny short stories takes into our deepest fears and through our extremely disturbing fantasies. Through stories about violence, alienation, and dystopia, Bazterrica’s vision of the human experience emerges in complex, unexpected ways—often unsettling, sometimes thrilling, and always profound. In “Roberto,” a girl claims to have a rabbit between her legs. A woman’s neighbor jumps to his death in “A Light, Swift, and Monstrous Sound,” and in “Candy Pink,” a woman fails to contend with a difficult breakup in five effortless steps.

Written in Bazterrica’s signature clever, vivid style, these stories question adore, friendship, family relationships, and unspeakable desires.
