Carnivorous Tales

"Carnivorous Tales" by Bernard Quiriny is a collection of fourteen stories that explore the author's unbridled imagination. The stories are filled with eccentric characters and surreal situations, such as a botanist in love with a carnivorous plant, an Argentine priest capable of splitting himself into different bodies, and an orange woman who allows herself to be drunk by her lovers.

Quiriny creates a world where the absurd and the wonderful coexist, recalling the literary tradition of authors such as Jorge Luis Borges and Edgar Allan Poe.
