Description

 SHORTLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE 2017Tightly wound and full of dread, Fever Dream is a chilling tale of maternal love and environmental catastrophe, from an Argentinian literary star  'The book I wish I had written' Lisa Taddeo, author of Three Women and AnimalA young woman named Amanda lies dying in a remote Argentinian hospital.

A boy named David sits beside her. She's not his mother. He's not her child. At David's ever more insistent prompting, Amanda recounts a series of events from the apparently recent past, a conversation that opens a chest of horrors.

Together, they tell a haunting story of broken souls, toxins, and the power and desperation of family. A chilling tale of maternal anxiety and ecological menace, Fever Dream is a modern classic.

Samanta Schweblin's unforgettable debut is a prescient warning about our manipulation of the natural world, and an unforgettable exercise in literary suspense. 'A gloriously creepy fable' Guardian, 'Best Fiction of 2017'
