Argentina

Fever Dream
by Samanta Schweblin

Award-winning author Samanta Schweblin was born in Buenos Aires in 1978. This, her first novel, is a superbly creepy story in which she expertly keeps tensions simmering. Part environmental disaster, part psychological thriller, it was shortlisted for the 2017 International Booker Prize and has been made into a Netflix film.
