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.

Saved my hands
Size: 8.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
After years of dealing with cracked, bleeding, dry skin from my eczema flare ups -- I was finally fed up. I'd tried everything in the book, but ultimately I resigned myself to never being able to have hands that weren't itchy, bleeding and cracking. I'm not exaggerating when I say this product (along with Aveeno's Daily Eczema Hand Lotion) saved my hands. I can't believe that my hands are no longer cracked, bleeding & itchy. They're soft, even! This hand wash has been a game changer & worth every penny.

Worked well. Try it.
Size: 8.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This stuff did help my dry hands. I still struggle with dry hands a bit but compared to softsoap it is much better. Expensive but worth it and cheaper than going to the dermatologist.

Great soap will buy again
Size: 8.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Super gentle on my cracked and dried hands! Love the foaming soap and the pump, gentle for my kids hands and love that it’s fragrance free, very effective my hands feel clean and smell clean and have been so much more hydrated since using it. Highly recommend. Wish it came in a bigger bottle

Made my Hands Extremely Dehydrated and caused a bad Eczema flare up.
Size: 8.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I tried so hard to like this Hand Soap and used it for about a month, and I thought it was working at first, but I ended up finding out that it was actually making my hands drier and was making them crack more, as well as flaring up my eczema X10. The soap does clean, but it definitely strips any moisture from the top of your hands and the palms. It made my skin super rough. I was even lotioning up after, and the dryness was still very prominent. As for the scent, I felt that it had almost no scent. My fiance, who didn't have any issues with dryness or eczema on his hands, developed very dry skin due to this hand soap, and we found out 100% that it was this hand soap once we switched to another. I know it has worked for some, but I personally wouldn't recommend it, and I don't think it is worth the price.
