      Part of the Peter Owen World Series: Spain. In 2016 Nona's Room won the major literary awards in Spain. With the chilling tones of Angela Carter's The Bloody Chamber and the psychological intensity of Paula Hawkins' The Girl on the Train, Cubas turns the everyday fantasies of her female characters into nightmare, delusion and paranoia.
