Proceed with Caution: Stories and a Novella

By Patricia Ratto

Following in the tradition of such past masters of the macabre as Jorge Luis Borges and Franz Kafka, and taking her place beside contemporary luminaries Guadalupe Nettle and Amparo D vila, Argentinian writer Patricia Ratto's English language debut story collection, Proceed With Caution, offers readers an alternate reality that is as unsettling as it is familiar. Whether it's a malevolent act born from the escalating sense of paranoia and madness that arise from living under a totalitarian regime, or the creeping sense of dread that blankets a small whaling town, the stories in Proceed With Caution linger in the memory, and make us question where the natural world ends and the supernatural begins.
