Deathcats / El Gato Eficaz



Luisa Valenzuela (1938-) is an Argentine novelist and short-story writer, one of the earliest magical realists, avant-garde, feminist, anti-authoritarian, & recipient of many awards, whose parents Borges visited often when she was a child, and who began publishing herself at the age of 17.

Deathcats was first published in Mexico in 1972. This en face edition is the first full-length English translation of this howl of anger in the extended rhythms of a Missa Cantata.
