The Scent of Buenos Aires (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Archipelago Books, New York, 2019
ISBN 10: 1939810345 ISBN 13: 9781939810342
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. From one of Argentina's greatest contemporary storytellers, The Scent of Buenos Aires gathers twenty-five of Hebe Uhart's most remarkable and incandescent short stories in English for the first time."Seemingly naive but tremendously sharp, Hebe Uhart's vision is one that could belong to a child, but a child who has up her sleeve the reflective tools of an adult." - Alejandra Costamagna"These stories rarely adhere to conventional plots, but as mood pieces they're effective glimpses into the peculiarities of Uhart's characters, who crave order but usually concede that the world's default mode is disarray." - Kirkus ReviewsThe Scent of Buenos Aires is the first collection of Uhart's to be published in English, drawing together her best vignettes of quotidian life, stories that sneak up on you. Refreshingly approachable, they are punctuated by street talk and saturated with a cryptic wit that recalls Lydia Davis.In The Scent of Buenos Aires, Uhart renders moments at the zoo, the hair salon, or a homeowners association meeting with delightfully eccentric insight. These stories cast an unusual, intimate light on the inner lives of plants, animals, and humans, magnifying the minute, everyday quirks of Argentina's small towns- a cat curls around his owner to humor him, a classroom of children sway like trees when their teacher turns her back. Smiling to herself, Uhart reveals the infinite ways we show ourselves to one another. Twenty-five of Hebe Urhart's most remarkable and incandescent stories, collected in Enlgish for the first time.

Cautery (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Charco Press, Edinburgh, 2025
ISBN 10: 1917260067 ISBN 13: 9781917260060
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Fantasies, or are they premonitions, of a great wave, an impending apocalypse, threaten to swamp a young woman trapped in a slowly curdling relationship. From the outside it all looks goodthe casually elegant apartment, the cocktail parties, the impressive, creative friendsbut for all her supposed freedom, her unhappiness means shes not living up to her side of the bargain. Why, everyone asks, is this not enough?Four hundred years earlier, formidable, irascible Deborah Moody marries, is disappointed, is widowed, loses a child, loses everything, and flees England for the Massachusetts Bay Colony. She finds her fortune there, but if relying on a husband proved a mistake, independence doesnt mean freedom from the dangerous vanities of men.Funny, cutting, and a savage indictment of the cheap consolations of meme-ified faux feminism, misplaced solidarity, and sacrifices for the supposed greater good, Cautery offers us two women (one based on a historical figure, one imagined) who share a final vision of true happinessburning it all down and beginning again. The difficulty of being a woman in 21st-century Barcelona and 17th-century Massachusetts might only be a few hundred years. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

The Scent of Buenos Aires
Language: English
Published by Archipelago Books, US, 2019
ISBN 10: 1939810345 ISBN 13: 9781939810342
Paperback. Condition: New. The Scent of Buenos Aires offers the first book-length English translation of Uhart's work, drawing together her best vignettes of quotidian life: moments at the zoo, the hair salon, or a cacophonous homeowners association meeting. She writes in unconventional, understated syntax, constructing a delightfully specific perspective on life in South America. These stories are marked by sharp humour and wit: discreet and subtle, yet filled with eccentric and insightful characters. Uhart's narrators pose endearing questions about their lives and environments - one asks 'Bees - do you know how industrious they are?' while another inquires, 'Are we perhaps going to hell in a hand basket?'.
