Despite the title, this is a book definitely NOT for children.  Here are 21 adult short stories from one of Spain’s most accomplished and brilliant writers.  Robert Rahula delivers a dazzling collection of contemporary “portilla” short stories – that writing style that interweaves graphic sexual detail, existential philosophy, wry political commentary, and intricate dreamlike plots.  A large talking bear waxes philosophical on the nature of evil while eating pancakes.  Scientists work together mapping the Higgs Boson particle while secretly plotting the seduction of each others’ wives.  A man joins the Bad Luck Club and learns the ultimate method for changing his luck.  A lover of Thai ladyboys confronts the nature of desire.  Pay phones that connect to God.  Forbidden pleasures in a crematorium.  A duck walks into a bar.   All this and more in this wonderful new collection.
