Philosophically engaged and darkly moving, the twenty stories in Nest in the Bones span three decades from Antonio di Benedetto's wildly various career. From his youth in Argentina to his exile in Spain after enduring emprisonment and torture under the military dictatorship during the so-called "dirty war" to his return in the 1980s, Benedetto's kinetic stories move effortlessly between genres, examining civilization's subtle but violent imprint on human conciousness. A late-twentieth century master of the short form and revered by his contemporaries,Nest in the Bones is the first comprehensive volume of Benedetto's stories avaialble in English.
My review :- a really great work that every one must read. The book was fabulous and fascinating with unique and witty stories and a captivating prose. I loved it and would recommend it to everyone.
