Book Overview

The "propulsive and mesmerizing" (The New York Times) story collection by the International Booker-shortlisted author of The Dangers of Smoking in Bed and Our Share of Night--now with a new short story.

The short stories of Mariana Enriquez are:
"The most exciting discovery I've made in fiction for some time."--Kazuo Ishiguro
"Violent and cool, told in voices so lucid they feel spoken."--The Boston Globe (Best Books of the Year)

Electric, disturbing, and exhilarating, the stories of Things We Lost in the Fire explore multiple dimensions of life and death in contemporary Argentina. Each haunting tale simmers with the nation's troubled history, but among the abandoned houses, black magic, superstitions, lost loves and regrets, there is also friendship, compassion, and humor. Translated by the National Book Award-winning Megan McDowell, these "slim but phenomenal" (Vanity Fair) stories ask the biggest questions of life and show why Mariana Enriquez has become one of the most celebrated new voices in global literature.
