Summary
'This volume brings together six stories about supernatural beings--ghosts, demons, angels, apparitions, witches, and vampires-- who, as it usually happens in fantastic literature, burst into daily lives in an unexpected and definitive way, to change the destiny of those they meet.'
Amazon.com description: Product Description: This is Carlos Fuentes’ big return to fantastic literature in which he brings together six stories about supernatural beings; ghosts, demons, angels, apparitions, witches, and vampires, who, as it usually happens in fantastic literature, burst into daily lives in an unexpected and definitive way, to change the destiny of those they meet. In their plots, Fuentes also proposes disquieting ideas and questions about love, death, God and vampires.

Description in Spanish: Fantasmas, brujas, ángeles, vampiros… A pesar de todas las apariencias de modernidad, los seres que acostumbramos llamar imaginarios no mueren por completo, como si nuestros temores más grandes y nuestros más ardorosos deseos sólo entrasen en receso, guardados en un sótano junto a cachivaches inservibles, hasta que un accidente, una casualidad o fuerzas oscuras los convocan.

¿Es vida este breve paso, esta premura entre la cuna y la tumba
