Here you have twenty crazy, dark, ironic, and cruel stories. And, also, a humorous one. Each of them with a distinct theme and literary style. Let's have a look: She is waiting in the hall – Brief and simple. An appetizer in a cozy home before domestic chaos. Nenete – Emotive, strong, and sad. Unfortunately, a story that must have happened somewhere in real life. It won't be so easy – Death, depicted growing in her childhood, stalks a little boy who, dangerously, rides his tricycle near her. On wars as it is in duels –This blurb is not spoiler-free, so I suggest you read it after the story. (After a battle, the only survivor, dying, tells an anecdote to his comrades without knowing, in his delusion, that they are gone already.) Accelerated aging – This one was written when the author wasn't suffering from the symptoms that are narrated. He's confirmed his delusions. Time to scuttle away – It is Death again. This time, she's herding her flock under a storm. It'll make you think about the sense of existence. Flowers in the window – Macabre. An unfortunately frequent situation in which the victim manages to get free through murder. Conjugal sacrifices – A breather on the way. A man who, being under a lucky star, is given a gift he wasn't expecting. A little humor to dissipate the gloom from the previous stories. Tetrahedron – Many curious things can happen, if one tries to talk to oneself deeply. Especially, if oneself is a community. (The reader will find out why) A better life? - This lifetime's sorrows are extended beyond life and return thirsty for more. Ghosts in the attic – Along with "His match" and "The wind and the dogs" are the oldest triad of stories in this book. Kill the messenger – The passions and ambitions harbored by a group of men in a small town. A story about intrigue. Astrid – My favorite. The protagonist is a walking fail
