An anthology of short stories in a range of genres from horror to
romance and more featuring monsters from Latine mythology and
authors from across the Latin American diaspora, including Yamile
Saied Mendez, Amparo Ortiz, Maritza and Maika Moulite, Lilliam
Rivera, and literary superstar Julia Alvarez. From zombies to
cannibals to death incarnate, this cross-genre anthology offers
something for every monster lover. In Our Shadows Have Claws,
bloodthirsty vampires are hunted by a quick-witted slayer; children
are stolen from their beds by "el viejo de la bolsa" while a
military dictatorship steals their parents; and anyone you love,
absolutely anyone, might be a shapeshifter waiting to hunt. The
worlds of these stories are dark but also magical ones, where a
ghost-witch can make your cheating boyfriend pay, bullies are
brought to their knees by vicious wolf-gods, a jar of fireflies can
protect you from the reality-warping magic of a bruja - and maybe
you'll even live long enough to tell the tale. Set across Latin
America and its diaspora, this collection offers bold, imaginative
stories of oppression, grief, sisterhood, first love, and
empowerment. Full contributor list: Chantel Acevedo, Courtney
Alameda, Julia Alvarez, Ann Davila Cardinal, M. Garcia Pena,
Racquel Marie, Gabriela Martins, Yamile Saied Mendez, Maika Moulite
and Maritza Moulite, Claribel A. Ortega, Amparo Ortiz, Lilliam
Rivera, Jenny Torres Sanchez, Ari Tison, and Alexandra Villasante.
