Media Reviews
'Gothic and brilliantly grim, these uneasy tales from the author of Tender Is The Flesh are as shadowy as night... Bazterrica's darkly macabre imagination works like talon and beak... chilling' - Daily Mail
'In 19 Claws, Bazterrica resumes the study of the macabre that characterised Tender Is the Flesh. This time, however, the brutality of the female experience is cut through with a dark wit and a heavy dose of the fantastic' - Guardian
'Like Enriquez, Bazterrica writes fetishistic gore with a bewitching allure, creating... an overwhelming sense of dread and a fear of losing one's senses' - Big Issue
'A compelling and unsettling work that will leave readers questioning the boundaries between love, desire, and obsession' - Glamour
'This book will leave you shocked into contemplating the darker sides of human nature' - Sci Fi Now
