The Unworthy
This novella has even wider appeal than Bazterrica’s successful debut, Tender Is the Flesh, and it is even more immersive and disquieting, as the apocalyptic climate it describes hits closer to home. Suggest to fans of works as varied as Matrix by Lauren Groff, Pink Slime by Fernanda Trías, and anything by Gwendolyn Kiste.

Pink Slime
With her eerie and unnervingly probable plot, strong narrative voice, and focus on the small, beautiful moments of life amid disaster, Trías’s (The Rooftop) tale will continue to haunt readers long after they turn the final page. Pair it with other thoughtful and subtle horror stories such as Sealed by Naomi Booth or Fever Dream by Samanta Schweblin.
