Özet

Life's a bitch. That's why you gotta rattle her cage, even if she's foaming at the mouth.

In the linked stories of Reservoir Bitches, 13 Mexican women prod the bitch that is Life as they fight, sew, skirt, cheat, cry and lie their way through their tangled circumstances. From the all-powerful daughter of a cartel boss to the victim of transfemicide, from a houseful of spinster seamstresses to a socialite who supports her politician husband by faking Indigenous roots, these women spit on their own reduction and invent new ways to survive, telling their stories in bold, unapologetic voices.

At once social critique and black comedy, Reservoir Bitches is a raucous debut from one of Mexico's most thrilling new writers.

Eleştirmen yorumları

'The stories are all narrated by women, from the daughters of crime bosses to designer-clad socialites, whose voices are all so alive and vibrant that reading this collection was a genuine thrill. It is a remarkably good debut collection.' (Barry Pierce, The Big Issue)
'de la Cerda offers a refreshingly unapologetic voice for women who refuse to be placated. This is worth a look.' (Publishers Weekly)
'[de la Cerda's] tactics succeed in creating the enchanting feeling that one is sitting across from each narrator, being told their stories as a close confidante ... The author's demand that we bear witness to the senseless murders, in all their gruesomeness, of these bright young women is sobering and commendable.' (Kirkus Reviews)
