Paperback. Condición: Very Good. A Jewish prisoner, beaten and abused by his captors, finds himself alone with his concentration camp commandant. The commandant's back is turned. His pistol lies within reach. What should the prisoner do?Written in 1943 while Friedrich Torberg, a Viennese Jew, was living in exile in California, Vengeance is Mine is the first English translation of one of the earliest works of Holocaust fiction. In it, Torberg grapples with a choice facing concentration camp inmates: comply and suffer? Or resist and risk immediate death?Torberg wrote this novel before the Nazi implementation of the Final Solution was known in America, yet he recognized that elimination of the Jews was behind even the initial actions of the men running the early concentration camps. Though reliant entirely on the accounts of a few escapees and survivors, Torberg penetrated the minds of both prisoner and captor and created a spare, riveting narrative that seizes the reader in a vise-like grip and leaves questions that compel discussion long afterwards. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. When his wife returns to her parents house to have their second child, an unnamed narrator and his son are left to manage by themselves. Instead of absence, what the father and son begin to notice is a strange noise opening up between them, reverberating through their home, their television set, and the books they read at night. The wood outside their home hums with it, too: leaves fall from branches which are already naked, trees wriggle when walked past, and the hills on the horizon rise and fall in a building rhythm.Ono's stories teeter on the edge of something unsayable, exploring repetition and contradiction to sketch compelling, otherworldly characters. The strange sound which hums through the twinned narratives is distilled in Carpenter's translation, which masterfully employs the rhythms and echoes of the English language to convey Ono's sense that something is coughing, laughing, turning under the words on the page.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Taken from his highly successful collection, these two stories take unconventional positions towards short story archetypes. The Tourist Butcher is an unflinching tale about a serial killer who prepares his victims for a culinary dish, while Memories in Aluminium Foil follows the nightmares and existential crisis of a psychology student who receives a slice of human brain in aluminium foil as a gift from his biologist roommate.In the original Dutch collection, Ouariachi stated that his goal was to bring the short story back to the campfire, allowing his stories to hold up a mirror to the reader, rather than telling them what to achieve. These two stories, appearing in English for the first time, demonstrate his success: he has created a pair of dark, horrifying underworlds for the readers mind to get lost in, whilst maintaining a language that is light and graceful.
