Out of the Ruins

Aviomies haluaa avata vaimonsa kaulaa koristavan vihreän nauhan. Outo epidemia saa tuhannet naiset haihtumaan hitaasti olemattomiin. Nainen päättää, että kahdeksan puraisua riittää. Nautinto, nälkä, himo ja kauhu kietoutuvat toisiinsa Carmen Maria Machadon novelleissa, jotka tulvivat rakkauden eläimellistä huumaa ja ruumiillisuuden herättämää inhoa. Ne kuvaavat pistävän osuvasti naisen elämään kuuluvia arkipäiväisiä kauhuja ja kehoon jääviä väkivallan merkkejä.Kahdeksan puraisun omaääniset tarinat liikkuvat suvereenisti maailmasta toiseen yhdistellen realismia ja scifiä, komediaa ja jännitystä, satuja ja maagista realismia. Niiden unenomainen ja samalla vereslihainen todellisuus ei jätä lukijaa rauhaan. Yhdysvaltalaisen Carmen Maria Machadon esikoisteos ilmestyi englanniksi 2017 ja on saanut useita palkintoja. Sen käännösoikeudet on myyty lukuisiin maihin. Machadon esseitä, fiktiota ja kritiikkejä on julkaistu muun muassa New Yorkerissa, The New York Timesissa, Grantassa ja Harper's Bazaarissa. Teokseen perustuva televisiosarja on tuotannossa.

Kahdeksan puraisua

Psykologisk realism ställs mot science fiction, komedi blandas med skräck, gränsen mellan fantasy och rent fabulerande suddas ut i denna novellsamling. Carmen Maria Machado tänjer obekymrat på genrelitteraturens regler och skapar häpnadsväckande häpnadsväckande som syftar till att kartlägga kvinnors liv och det våld som utövas mot deras kroppar. En gift kvinna vägrar att lyssna på sin makes enträgna böner om att få ta bort det gröna band hon alltid håller knutet runt halsen. En ung kvinna försöker minnas alla sina sexpartners samtidigt som en pest håller på att utplåna mänskligheten. Ett butiksbiträde säljer glamorösa festklänningar i en lyxbutik och gör en fasansfull upptäckt när hon inser vad som döljer sig innanför sömmarna. En kvinnas fettsugning resulterar i att hon får en oväntad gäst som förföljer henne i hemmet. I långnovellen Especially Heinous återberättar Machado varje avsnitt av tv-serien Law & Order men ger den en lätt overklig framtoning med spöken och vampyrer.
