The best of both worlds

Description

This is the new book of stories by Quim Monzó. It contains thirteen short stories and a novella tinged with an inciting black comedy. They are cruel stories, crossed by happiness, violence and private hells, and peopled by obsessive characters with laughter in return. Monzó adds—to the mastery demonstrated in the previous books—new narrative strategies, and uses with originality a whole range of tones that give "The best of the worlds" a unique strength and show us as an undeniable new step forward.
