In her provocative debut, Carmen Maria Machado demolishes the borders between magical realism and science fiction, comedy and horror, fantasy and fabulism. Startling narratives map the realities of women's lives and the violence visited on their bodies, both in myth and in practice.

Tiger, tiger, burning bright, in the forests of the night. In the town of Never-Again, Pennsylvania, this hand-game song contains a history - centuries of inexplicable tiger sightings. It also reveals a frightening prophecy, one that only a small circle of players envisions.

When nature gets up close and personal, it isn’t always pretty. A fallen tree sparks a poisonous feud between neighbors. A child searches the darkness for the gleam of a tiger’s teeth.

Based on the book, a series is being made that was announced by the producers to be “a feminist Black Mirror”.

Les Germanes Quintana tornen disposades a carregar-se qui se'ls posi al davant. Deu sicàries literàries amb una llarga experiència en l'ofici i que són, curiosament, germanes, van rebre, fa alguns mesos, un encàrrec al qual no es van poder negar: cada una d'elles havia de perpetrar un assassinat literari, basat en experiències pròpies o imaginades. Algunes de les nostres assassines han estat delicades, d'altres brutals, d'altres no se n'han sortit o se n'han sortit massa, n'hi ha que ho han fet soles i n'hi ha que han muntat un equip, però, sigui com sigui, totes han imaginat assassinats.

This is Britain: but not as we know it. THEY are coming closer . . . THEY begin with a dead dog, shadowy footsteps, confiscated books. Soon the National Gallery is purged; eerie towers survey the coast; savage mobs stalk the countryside destroying artworks—and those who resist. THEY capture dissidents—writers, painters, musicians, even the unmarried and childless—in military sweeps, 'curing' these subversives of individual identity. Survivors gather together as cultural refugees, preserving their crafts, creating, loving and remembering. But THEY make it easier to forget ...

Patricia Highsmith was one of the great 20th-century novelists, celebrated for classics The Talented Mr Ripley, Carol and Strangers on a Train, but she was also a masterful and prolific short-story writer. This definitive new collection, featuring two stories that have never been published before, confirms Highsmith as a genius of the genre. Peerlessly disturbing, exhilarating and savagely funny, Highsmith's stories still have the power to startle, presenting a world that is frighteningly familiar and as relevant today as when they were written.
