Nona's Room

Synopsis of Nona's Room

In Nona's Room, the everyday fantasies of women slowly turn into nightmare, delusion, and paranoia. A young girl who is envious of the attention given to her sister has a brutal awakening. A young woman, facing eviction, misplaces her trust in an old lady who invites her into her home. Cubas's stories are suffused with the chilling tones of Angela Carter's 'The Bloody Chamber' and the psychological intensity of Paula Hawkins's 'The Girl on the Train'. This award-winning collection of Gothic and uncanny stories from one of Europe's most celebrated contemporary writers of short fiction will immerse you in a world where things are never quite what they seem.
