ABOUT THE BOOK

Longlisted for the International Booker Prize 2025
Winner of the Premio Nacional de Cuento Joven Comala 2019

‘We women can be really horrible.’

Thirteen women from across Mexico tell their own stories in this ferocious, darkly funny collection: a hitwoman, a narco’s girlfriend, a trans woman, teenage girls from the barrio, mothers searching for their disappeared daughters. To survive in the most unjust corners of a society shaped by machismo and violence, they have learned to be ruthless – and cunning, solidarity and the occasional gun are always on the table.

Written in a street-smart, irresistible voice, Reservoir Bitches is less a catalogue of victims than a manual for taking power back.
