BESTSELLER DEL NEW YORK TIMES * RECOMENDADO POR JENNA BUSH EN SU CLUB DE LECTURA DEL TODAY SHOW Y EN SU PODCAST READ WITH JENNA

Estos cuentos confirman a la autora canadiense como una incisiva cronista de nuestros impulsos más oscuros.

Consagrada gracias a la fabulosa difusión de sus novelas El cuento de la criada y Alias Grace, ambas convertidas en series de éxito internacional, Margaret Atwood despliega inteligencia y humor en abundancia en estos nueve cuentos sobre las facetas más absurdas y deliciosamente malvadas del ser humano. La irrupción de vampiros, de criaturas poseídas y de espíritus, que conviven con personajes y situaciones entrañables de la vida cotidiana, muda los relatos en originalísimas variantes sobre la inagotable materia de la enfermedad, la vejez y la muerte, a la vez que suponen una tenaz defensa de valores como el derecho a la diferencia y la libertad individual, y una aguerrida vindicación de las mujeres en un entorno hostil.

Así, una escritora de literatura fantástica que ha enviudado hace poco sobrevive a una tormentosa noche de invierno guiada por la voz de su difunto marido; una anciana aquejada por el síndrome de Charles Bonnet asume la presencia de enanitos imaginarios mientras una turba disfrazada con caretas se congrega ante la residencia de la tercera edad donde vive para asaltar el recinto y prenderle fuego; o una sedimentación fosilizada con mil novecientos millones de años de antigüedad venga un delito cometido tiempo atrás.

La mirada cáustica, lúcida y de una gran humanidad de Atwood es el componente sustancial de una prosa implacable, un faro que no deja de iluminarnos entre tanta incertidumbre y confusión.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Handmaid's Tale

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - READ WITH JENNA BOOK CLUB PICK AS FEATURED ON TODAY - RECOMMENDED ON THE 'READ WITH JENNA' PODCAST-

In this extraordinary collection, Margaret Atwood gives us nine unforgettable tales that reveal the grotesque, delightfully wicked facets of humanity. "Alphinland," the first of three loosely linked tales, introduces us to a fantasy writer who is guided through a stormy winter evening by the voice of her late husband. In "Lusus Naturae," a young woman, monstrously transformed by a genetic defect, is mistaken for a vampire. And in the title story, a woman who has killed four husbands discovers an opportunity to exact vengeance on the first man who ever wronged her. By turns thrilling, funny, and thought-provoking, Stone Mattress affirms Atwood as our greatest creator of worlds--and as an incisive chronicler of our darkest impulses.

Work well, no bad skin reactions
Size: 50 count (Pack of 1), Size: 50 count (Pack of 1)
I can't believe what a great deal these are! It's less than $7 (as an add-on buy) for two packets. I had already bought this brand once before so I knew they'd work for me. They remove make-up pretty well. I don't think they are the very best of all time, but they are up there with the other brands I've tried. This product states that it has no artificial dyes or perfumes. These points are really important. Any fragrance that is added to beauty products can irritate your skin, which has happened to me in the past. I do detect the slightest scent, though. It's actually rather pleasant. I think there's still a slight residue of mascara left over after using the wipes pretty thoroughly, so I only gave them 4 stars. Your experience may differ as the packaging promises to remove all makeup residue. Maybe I'm not using them properly? I have very sensitive skin and I didn't break out or otherwise react poorly to these. They do the job as well as I think can be expected for facial wipes so I bought them again. I really hope the claims to being simply formulated are true. I have a healthy scepticism of the beauty industry. My experience with these wipes has been positive so I will take it on faith that they live up to their advertising as far as having no unnecessary additives. One more thing: I like the idea of the added vitamins. It always cracks me up when facial cleansers advertise the addition of helpful vitamins. How can they help when you're immediately rinsing them back off your face? The addition of any vitamins to regular liquid cleansers is just a waste. They do nothing for you. That being said, when they are added to facial wipes, they are spread on your skin and stay there, since you don't generally rinse after using wipes. In this way of cleaning, you may actually be reaping some benefit from the added vitamins.

Indispensable!
Scent: Unscented, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 4)
I love these so much that they are part of my monthly subscribe-and-save program. They have absolutely no scent, which is great, because too many products are over-perfumed. They take off all of my makeup gently. There is no stinging or drying sensation. The cloths are well-sized and the package stays shut when not in use- the cloths do not dry out. After I use a couple of these each night to take my makeup off, I follow up with a gentle, moisturizing facial cleanser. My skin is soft, clean, and happy. I highly recommend these!
