An undocumented woman answers a job posting only to find herself
held hostage; a group of outcasts obsess over boys drowned while
surfing; and an unhappy couple finds themselves trapped in a
terrifying maze. With scalpel-like precision, Ampuero considers the
price paid by those on the margins so that the elite might lounge
comfortably, considering themselves safe in their homes.
Simultaneously terrifying and exquisite, Human Sacrifices is
'tropical gothic' at its finest-decay and oppression underlie our
humid and hostile world, where working-class women and children are
consistently the weakest links in a capitalist economy. Against
this backdrop of corrosion and rot, these twelve stories
contemplate the nature of exploitation and abuse, illuminating the
realities of those society consumes for its own pitiless ends.
