In these tense, macabre stories, bodies fall from the sky, perfect nails conceal grisly secrets and violence pulses behind gleaming facades. From hellish visions to obsessive relationships, acclaimed author Agustina Bazterrica takes us to the dark heart of human desires and fears.
Shocking, brutal, yet glinting with sharp humour, Nineteen Claws and a Black Bird is a breathtaking dive into human monstrousness from a master of contemporary horror.
SALES POINTS
Compulsive, gothic short fiction from the celebrated author of Tender is the Flesh - for readers of Mariana Enríquez, Boy Parts by Eliza Clark and Her Body and Other Parties by Carmen Maria Machado Tender is the Flesh was a hit with critics and readers and became a TikTok sensation, and these dark, twisted stories are sure to satisfy fans.
REVIEWS
'Gothic and brilliantly grim, these uneasy tales from the author of Tender Is The Flesh are as shadowy as night even in the bright glare of sunshine, as Bazterrica's darkly macabre imagination works like talon and beak, capable of tearing apart everyday situations and transforming them into something horribly chilling', Daily Mail
'In 19 Claws, Bazterrica resumes the study of the macabre that characterised Tender Is the Flesh. This time, however, the brutality of the female experience is cut through with a dark wit and a heavy dose of the fantastic', Guardian
