Whimsical and sinister, each story by Silvina Ocampo is like a
knife of spun sugar that can still pierce between your ribs. A
thief breaks into the house of a psychic with disastrous results, a
bride has her personality subsumed by the previous occupant of her
home, and two men switch destinies for a change of pace. The
Impostor offers a comprehensive collection from one of the
twentieth century's great forgotten woman writers. Here are tales
of doubles and living dolls, angels and demons, a beautiful seer
who writes the autobiography of her own death, and much else that
is mad, sublime, and delicious. With an array spanning the length
of Ocampo's career, these haunting stories are among the world's
strangest and best.
