La puerta de la felicidad

Humour and invention fill eleven tales where daily life keeps tipping into the uncanny. Two small vegan sisters with a language of their own are wary of grandparents who eat meat. A machine that hands out new identities rises against the people who built it. An old patriarch loses the voice that used to tell him where to go, a couple find themselves given a restaurant's telephone number, and a screenwriter's plan to shoot a horror film about the undead in Bogotá goes off in directions he never foresaw. Along the way the tales tie together subjects that seem to have nothing in common, such as homecoming and the walking dead, or God and gaming.
