Dua Lipa Highlights Mariana Enríquez’s "Los peligros de fumar en la cama" in Halloween Service95 Picks

The choice underscores her sustained interest in Argentine literature through her Service95 platform.

Overview

  • Lipa added the short‑story collection to a five‑book Halloween horror selection on the Service95 Book Club.
  • She described it as twelve unsettling tales set in and around Buenos Aires that braid supernatural events with Argentine historical trauma, often through the experiences of women and girls.
  • First published in 2009, the collection has been reissued and translated after Enríquez’s broader international breakthrough in 2019.
  • Página/12 reports the Halloween list drew on preferences from the Service95 readership.
  • La Voz del Interior notes the recommendation extends Lipa’s recent spotlights on Argentine authors such as Hernán Díaz and Selva Almada, with interest likely to build as she readies shows in Argentina.
