Tomás Downey

Artist | Spanish

Tomás Downey (Buenos Aires, Argentina, 1984) is a translator and screenwriter and one of the foremost short-story writ- ers in Argentina today. His work often draws comparisons to Mariana Enríquez and Samanta Schweblin. It tends to draw out the strangeness hidden beneath the surface of everyday life. He is the author of three short-story collections: Acá el tiempo es otra cosa, El lugar donde mueren los pájaros, and Flores que se abren de noche.
