Tapa dura. Zustand: New. Esta Navidad llegan las Hermanas Raras, una deliciosa antología de cuentos firmados por las grandes damas del pulp, seleccionados con mano experta por Mike Ashley.Brujas, vampiras, mujeres que se funden con sus deseos más oscuros, madres monstruosas, hijas vengativas, damas con el alma podrida y jovencitas que ríen mientras todo arde. Esta Navidad llegan las Hermanas Raras, una deliciosa antología de cuentos firmados por las grandes damas del pulp, seleccionados con mano experta por Mike Ashley para la British Library. Catorce autoras --de la célebre Margaret St. Clair a la enigmática Allison V. Harding, pasando por Tanith Lee, la baronesa Greye La Spina o incluso Lucy Maud Montgomery en su noche más gótica-- firman estos relatos turbios, sugestivos y altamente adictivos, nacidos en las páginas de Weird Tales y otras revistas míticas entre los años veinte y los setenta.Tesoros recuperados del subsuelo del horror, el suspense y la ciencia ficción, estas historias están habitadas por ratas que piensan, niños con secretos atroces, amantes espectrales, figuras que se duplican en el espejo y presencias que te observan desde la alacena. con mucha paciencia. Son cuentos que arañan, que ríen entre dientes, que brillan de puro malicia, y que nos recuerdan que las mujeres siempre han sabido jugar --y reinar-- en los márgenes de lo raro.…

Tapa dura. Zustand: New. Con frecuencia se acepta que durante el siglo XIX y principios del XX fueron los escritores varones quienes desarrollaron y ampliaron el horizonte de los relatos atroces de misterio, y que las mujeres escritoras se limitaron a seguir su estela. ¡Nada más lejos de la realidad! La antología que hoy presentamos reúne las contribuciones de dieciséis maestras y amantes del miedo exquisito; muchos de cuyos nombres se perdieron en las revistas pulp y underground de principios de siglo. Por fin podremos conocer el lado oscuro de «El jardín secreto», de Frances Hodgson Burnett, y en qué consistían las pesadillas de la mismísima Marie Corelli. Escucharemos cautivados, a la par que temerosos, las voces de las escritoras que poblaron las páginas de la revista Weird Tales, como Sophie Wenzel Ellis, Greye La Spina o Margaret St. Clair, y nos inclinaremos ante lo sensacional, lo surrealista y lo desafiante de sus magníficos relatos de terror. Un conjunto de narraciones que rompieron con las barreras del género en la épocay que levantaron a sus autoras del abismo de la pobreza, de las adversidades de su infancia y de sus vidas de mujeres casaderas.…
