Product information
This collection of short stories by Mexican writers, coordinated and selected by Jorge Volpi, does not seek to contribute to the vast folklore of the Day of the Dead, but rather to take advantage of its metaphors, connotations, and the power of seduction that death exerts on contemporary minds. These 13 authors, whose careers and styles are very diverse, offer a particular vision of November 1st. To do so, they leave aside characteristic elements such as sugar skulls, offerings, and cempasúchil, as well as common topics and the stigma of what is “Mexican,” to delve into styles and themes that range from humor to the macabre.
