このコンテンツについて
INTERNATIONAL BESTELLER • A haunting, unforgettable collection of tales by Samanta Schweblin, winner of the 2022 National Book Award for Translated Literature and three-time Booker Prize finalist.
"Wonderfully unpredictable and invitingly strange.”—Lorrie Moore, I Am Homeless if This Is Not My Home
"Schweblin creates characters whose lifelines reach some of the most extraordinary questions ever articulated in our literature."—Karen Russell, author of The Antidote and Swamplandia!
“In Samanta Schweblin’s hands a single story becomes a theory of just about everything. You can hear all the atoms of the universe bouncing around. Remarkably taut, clear, precise, and yet capable of capturing the extent of our human messiness, these stories are perfect for the times we dwell inside.”—Colum McCann, author of Let the Great World Spin
The characters of Good and Evil find themselves at a point of no return, dazzled by the glare of impending tragedy. Vulnerable and profoundly human, they become trapped in the instant in which the uncanny has lurched into their lives. Some are transformed, some are isolated, others waver between guilt or tenderness. All of them are riven by uncertainty.
Schweblin’s prose uses tension and truth to construct a literary universe in which the monsters of everyday life come so close to us that we can almost feel their breath. Her writing provokes awe and disquiet, a state of alarm that at the same time transports us to a hypnotic world as recognizable as it is strange.

“Nobody understands the balance of light and darkness of the human mind as well as Samanta Schweblin. She is a master of the edge, of the contour, the suggestion. The most brilliant writer of short stories writing today, she now delivers her most haunting, fierce and provocative book.”—Valeria Luiselli, author of Lost Children Archive
“Samanta Schweblin combines the urgent propulsion that characterizes all great storytelling with precise, if uncanny, descriptions of human feelings that often go unnamed, those ambiguous zones of human reality where awe, dread, and desire mingle.”—Siri Hustvedt, author of Memories of the Future
“Samanta Schweblin has a rare ability to write stories that are more than just stories: they are bits of obsessions, fragments of nightmares, desires like parasites that colonize us, because Samanta knows. She understands the delicate and monstrous music that is shaped from our shadows, from the ghosts we carry within us. That is why to read her is to remember; to read her is to witness, in bewilderment, a miracle made of disturbance and light.”—Agustina Bazterrica, bestelling author of Tender is the Flesh
