520 1 $a"Laura Rivera can't believe what has happened. Her best friend has been killed in cold blood in her own living room! Nobody knows who pulled the trigger or who might have masterminded the murder, but Laura - an upper-crust young woman used to getting her own way - will not rest easy until she finds out. Laura's dizzying, delirious, hilarious, and blood-curdling monologue carries the reader on a rough-and-tumble ride through the chaos of post-civil war San Salvador." "A detective story of pulse-quickening suspense, The She-Devil in the Mirror is also a sober reminder that justice and truth are more often than not illusory. Castellanos Moya's relentless, obsessive narrator - female, rich, paranoid, wonderfully perceptive and, in the end, fabulously unreliable - paints with frivolous profundity a society in a state of collapse. As her anger and panic grow, Laura talks faster and faster: she sends the story screeching around corners, her voice leaving black tire marks along the way. Nothing can stop her as she rattles on and on about her disbelief and horror at the evils all around her - but who's that in the mirror?"--Jacket.
