A bizarre, mysterious novel-in-stories, "El atlas de ceniza "employs a variety of narrative forms. The short stories--a series of delicate brush strokes of the apocalypse--combine to take us to a devastating place where mothers, fathers, children, and all kinds of physical distortions and impossible meteorological phenomena coexist under a dark, dirty sky that foretells, without fuss, the end of the world. Stories include "The Disappeared," "Damage Claim Questionnaire," "The Ruined Child," "Seabed," "Smoke House," "Television Milk," "Want for Wish for Nowhere," and "Water Damaged Photos of Our House Before I Left It," among others.
