«El encierro de las bestias» is the contemporary fiction novel by Magnus Mills, published by El Aleph Editores in paperback (240 pages, in Spanish).
Three men work in Scotland building high-tension fences designed to keep animals in and humans out, or perhaps the reverse. Between irony and the sinister, the story combines humour and mounting tension until an ingenious denouement that keeps resonating after closing the book.
Originally published in English as The Restraint of Beasts (1998), it was shortlisted for the Booker Prize and won the McKitterick Prize. This edition belongs to the Modernos y Clásicos collection.
For readers of contemporary literary fiction who appreciate black humour and unsettling atmospheres.
Magnus Mills is an English fiction writer and former bus driver. He is best known for his first novel, The Restraint of Beasts, which was shortlisted for the Booker Prize and praised by Thomas Pynchon.
