This is the second, even a bit weird, anthology from Mr Mendoza de Gyves, the Mexican writer of strange stories. Thanks to the failure of his first anthology published in Spanish, the author received an unprecedented amount of attention; he was quickly established as a master terrible storyteller, ideal for strange readers. In this second collection of the strangest Mexican tales, as in the first one, the everyday life beyond Trump’s wall is turned upside down and the ordinary becomes extraordinary. The collection consists of fourteen peculiar stories, which are sure to seduce any eccentric reader, this time only for outlandish English-speaking booklovers.
