What is Crimes about?

152 pages ; 20 cm "Unexplained blood stains appear in a young couple's apartment; a disembodied hand is found in a rubbish dump; political prisoners resort to horrific measures in order to make a point. In this brilliant new collection of stories, Alberto Barrera Tyszka casts an eye on the violence that afflicts Latin America, and in particular its intimate effects on the individuals who suffer and inflict it. Mixing the surreal with the quotidian, the banal with the unspeakable, Tyszka has created a fragmentary panorama of man's misdeeds against his own kind. These windingly elliptical stories are ceaselessly surprising, and will bury themselves into your subconscious long after the final page is turned."--Goodreads website Originally published in Spanish as Crímenes by Editorial Anagrama, Barcelona, 2009 Nothing -- Other people's correspondence -- A Mexican story -- Stray bullets -- Dogs -- A sentimental matter -- Famous writers -- Last night -- Why don't women like porn movies? -- The open veins
