Mariana Enriquez thrusts us into the heart of contemporary Argentina, where the line between everyday realism and the horror of the macabre is disturbingly blurred. 'The Dangers of Smoking in Bed' is a collection of stories that delve deep into the psyches of those living on the margins of society. Unsettling and provocative, these tales reveal the darkness lurking beneath the surface of the mundane, exploring themes such as obsession, loss, and the grim realities that the disenfranchised face. Enriquez, with piercing empathy, draws us into worlds where the strange becomes an unsettling mirror to human nature's unspoken desires, illnesses, and moral complexities.
