Las Voladoras - by Monica Ojeda (Paperback)

About the Book

"Creatures that climb onto the roofs and take flight, a teenager with a passion for blood, a teacher who picks up her neighbor's head in her garden, a girl unable to separate herself from her father's teeth, two noisy twins at a festival of experimental music, women who jump from the top of a mountain, apocalyptic earthquakes, a shaman who writes a spell to revive his daughter. The Flyers brings together eight stories that are located in cities, towns, moors, volcanoes where violence and mysticism, the earthly and the celestial, belong to the same ritual and poetic plane. Mónica Ojeda blows our minds with an Andean Gothic and shows us, once again, that horror and beauty belong to the same family"--
