Narrated by:
“No one captures the intricacies of the human mind and all of its gorgeous pathologies like Gerardo Sámano Córdova . . . [A] pot boiling exploration at the nexus of wickedly perverse and tenderly discomfiting, Imps! is a full-blown original, just like its writer.” —Alejandro Varela, author of The Town of Babylon and Middle Spoon
On a quiet morning, Francisca awakes to a rare good day. She skips work, admires the squabbling sparrows on her tiny terrace in Mexico City, and senses a joy so refreshing it feels dangerous. But when there’s a knock on her door, announcing an odd stranger at her apartment, Francisca, frightened and fascinated, acts on a whim, shattering her peaceful day and predictable life. She can think of only one person to help her with this unexpected, maybe hostile visitor—her estranged twin brother, Pablo.
As Pablo arrives, the day spirals from an awkward reunion into a claustrophobic, feverish confrontation where the thirty-five-year-old twins must reckon with a past they thought they had outrun. Over the course of this peculiar day, Francisca and Pablo realize this man brings devastating questions and a reckoning twenty years in the making.
Critically acclaimed author of the bestselling cult-classic horror novel Monstrilio, Gerardo Sámano Córdova brings his trademark blend of strangeness, darkness, humor, and tenderness to Imps!, an exploration of imagination, loss, brokenness, and the quest for the extraordinary in everyday life.
