SHORTLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE 2017 'The book I wish I had written' Lisa Taddeo, author of Three Women and Animal A young woman named Amanda lies dying in a remote Argentinian hospital. A boy named David sits beside her. She's not his mother. He's not her child. At David's ever more insistent prompting, Amanda recounts a series of events from the apparently recent past, a conversation that opens a chest of horrors. Together, they tell a haunting story of broken souls, toxins, and the power and desperation of family. A chilling tale of maternal anxiety and ecological menace, Fever Dream is a modern classic. Samanta Schweblin's unforgettable debut is a prescient warning about our manipulation of the natural world, and an unforgettable exercise in literary suspense.

Záchranná vzdialenosť je tichá, no mimoriadne znepokojujúca kniha, ktorá pracuje skôr s atmosférou než s dejom. Núti čitateľa premýšľať o strachu, zodpovednosti a krehkosti bezpečia. Krátka, intenzívna a emocionálne silná.
