While the women are sleeping

Marías, Javier2011
Books
In his first short story collection for 15 years, Javier Marías brings together tales which span his entire writing career. His characters are slippery, and they live on the edges of society: a tramp, a butler, a bodyguard, a ghost. They threaten the normal, rational world, and are driven to perverse acts of obsession.
