Publisher's Synopsis
This book keys into the current obsession with Latin American literature, especially in translation from women authors. Though she's created a huge amount of buzz south of the US, this is Garcia Lao's first time in English. Fans of Silvina Ocampo, New Directions, and Feminist Press will love this book.
"An infernal burlesque, Fernanda Garcìa Lao's Out of the Cage demonstrates an unabashed penchant for desecration, slaughtering sacred institutions while mercilessly skewering the sanctimonious. Saturated with the twin intoxicants of death and deviance, this is an outlandish, gyrating, risqué revelation of a novel. A taboo-incinerating provocation to the very end." -- Justin Walls, Bookshop.org
