Description
LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZEA debut linked story collection of gritty, streetwise, and wickedly funny fiction from Mexico. Life?s a bitch. That?s why you gotta rattle her cage, even if she?s foaming at the mouth. In the linked stories of Reservoir Bitches, thirteen Mexican women prod the bitch that is Life as they fight, sew, skirt, cheat, cry, and lie their way through their tangled circumstances. From the all-powerful daughter of a cartel boss to the victim of transfemicide, from a houseful of spinster seamstresses to a socialite who supports her politician husband by faking Indigenous roots, these women spit on their own reduction and invent new ways to survive, telling their stories in bold, unapologetic voices. At once social critique and black comedy, Reservoir Bitches is a raucous debut from one of Mexico?s most thrilling new writers.
