The Global Bestseller from the International Booker Prize-shortlisted Author of Fever Dream

CONFRONT THE DARKNESS

‘A fabulous writer. Her stories are subtle, always haunting and deeply human’ - Isabel Allende

A young mother steps into the water, determined to end her life. What will bring her back?

‘You will find yourself in the space on the other side of terror – a space of openness, fragility and strange reassurance’ - The Guardian

For a single moment, a baby is left unattended in a room of everyday dangers.

‘Just stellar - Extreme, uncanny and beautifully controlled’ - Anne Enright

In a high-rise apartment block, in a city far from home, a ghost appears.

‘A master of the uncanny’ - The New Yorker

When a lonely woman acts on a kind impulse the consequences will be dark, bold and revelatory.

'These stories are perfect for the times we dwell inside' - Colum McCann

From the thrice International Booker nominated author of Fever Dream and Little Eyes come six perfect terrors to change your days and haunt your dreams.

‘Mesmerizing . . . powerfully evocative and unsettling’ - Joyce Carol Oates, The New York Times

Samanta Schweblin won the 2022 National Book Award for Translated Literature for her story collection Seven Empty Houses. Her debut novel, Fever Dream, was shortlisted for the International Booker Prize, and her novel Little Eyes and story collection Mouthful of Birds have been longlisted for the same prize. Her books have been translated into more than forty languages, and her stories have appeared in English in The New Yorker, The Paris Review, Granta, Harper’s Magazine and elsewhere. Originally from Buenos Aires, Schweblin lives in Berlin. Good and Evil and Other Stories is her third collection.
