Book Description
An NYRB Classics Original
Silvina Ocampo is undoubtedly one of the twentieth century's great masters of
the short story. Italo Calvino once said about her, "I don't know another writer
who better captures the magic inside everyday rituals, the forbidden or hidden
face that our mirrors don't show us." Thus Were Their Faces collects a wide
range of Ocampo's best short fiction and novella-length stories from her whole
writing life. Stories about creepy doubles, a marble statue of a winged horse
that speaks to a girl, a house of sugar that is the site of an eerie possession,
children who lock their perverse mothers in a room
