Here you have twenty crazy, dark, ironic, and cruel stories. And, also, a humorous one. Each of them with a distinct theme and literary style. Let's have a look:
She is waiting in the hall - Brief and simple. An appetizer in a cozy home before domestic chaos.
Nenete - Emotive, strong, and sad. Unfortunately, a story that must have happened somewhere in real life.
It won't be so easy - Death, depicted growing in her childhood, stalks a little boy who, dangerously, rides his tricycle near her.
On wars as it is in duels -This blurb is not spoiler-free, so I suggest you read it after the story. (After a battle, the only survivor, dying, tells an anecdote to his comrades without knowing, in his delusion, that they are gone already.)
Accelerated aging - This one was written when the author wasn't suffering from the symptoms that are narrated. He's confirmed his delusions.
Time to scuttle away - It is Death again. This time, she's herding her flock under a storm. It'll make you think about the sense of existence.
Flowers in the window - Macabre. An unfortunately frequent situation in which the victim manages to get free through murder.
Conjugal sacrifices - A breather on the way. A man who, being under a lucky star, is given a gift he wasn't expecting. A little humor to dissipate the gloom from the previous stories.
Tetrahedron - Many curious things can happen, if one tries to talk to oneself deeply. Especially, if oneself is a community. (The reader will find out why)
A better life? - This lifetime's sorrows are extended beyond life and return thirsty for more.
Ghosts in the attic - Along with "His match" and "The wind and the dogs" are the oldest triad of stories in this book.
Kill the messenger - The passions and ambitions harbored by a group of men in a small town. A story about intrigue.
Astrid - My favorite. The protagonist is a walking failure on the tightrope, but with a lot of luck and a strange sense of resignation.
Mimetic - A weird and particular story about a murderer who can't kill his loneliness.
His match - Frustrated swindle around a debatable invention.
The apostolate - Envious of his colleagues' talents, an amateur writer plots a clever plan, but it backfires. Irony, a bit of humor, and some blood.
The Cúcaros report - A horror story about researchers who try to elaborate insecticides against cockroaches.
Paranoia - Misunderstanding and suspicion ruin a couple's hope.
The wind and the dogs - A thriller story in a Victorian style.
I'll ring you and meet you - Mobiles are included, so it is a recent one. It shows that love can survive Apocalypse despite changing everything else.
