'A barbed, deeply affecting collection of short fiction that brims with razor-sharp prose and uncompromising cruelty, this book will linger in the mind with the same excruciating ache of an invisible wound. Human Sacrifices is masterful and profoundly distressing, and something that I will read again and again.'

Eric LaRocca, author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke
A groundbreaking voice in contemporary Latin American literature, María Fernanda Ampuero confronts machismo, inequity, and violence in her latest short story collection. An undocumented woman answers a job posting only to find herself held hostage, a group of outcasts obsess over popular boys drowned while surfing, and two girls suspect sinister behavior from the missionaries lodging in their home.
Simultaneously terrifying and exquisite, Human Sacrifices is “tropical gothic” at its finest. Ampuero considers the decay and oppression beneath the surface of our humid and hostile world, where those on the margins must pay the price for the comfort and safety of the elite. These twelve stories contemplate the nature of exploitation and abuse, illuminating the realities of those society consumes and leaves behind.
