Jenny Offill and Milo J. Krmpotic

African cities that never sleep, Indian girls raised by wolves, millenary monsters hiding in the swamp beneath tourists' feet, a woman burning on a roller coaster in Texas, a new religion founded around the cult of a giant ear of corn…

All that and much more is what Grace will discover through the fantastic stories her mother tells her: tales that manage to capture the unexplainable, the rare magic of the world we inhabit, a world where only a few things will survive.

Jenny Offill's debut, published now for the first time in Spain, is a strange tribute to the power of storytelling in our lives and a reflection, both innocent and brutal, on childhood, family, and the burden of mental illness.

In Africa —my mother told me—, there is a secret city where no one ever sleeps. When a traveler stumbles upon it and falls asleep, they are buried alive before waking up. The locals think they died during the night.
