Recenzii
"I've loved everything Carol Emshwiller has ever written ... " --Connie Willis, author, To Say Nothing of the Dog and Impossible Things "[Emshwiller] revels in the sheer taste and sound of words ... infuses them with an extraordinary vitality and sense of life." -- Newsday "Her eye for detail and ear for poetry allow her to create compact fables that resonate beyond their immediate settings." -- The San Francisco Chronicle "Wildy colorful, disturbingly funny, impossible to predict and undeniably transformative." -- Seattle Times "The woman is a genius, period...You must, must, must not miss this collection." --Gwenda Bond, Shaken & Stirred "Deceptively simple, yet so powerful, so subtle, so disruptive as to blow our imaginations wide open." --Strange Horizons
Descriere
A sophisticated collection of fierce, tender fiction marked by absurdist humor, these striking short stories skillfully explore themes of war, seduction, and censorship. An Eden emerges from the wreckage and destruction of burning books in 'The Library.' 'Boys' sets a weary general and his sons against a village of determined mothers, and 'I Live with You' brings a chaos from an uninvited guest. Filled with originality and lyricism, this collection is a must for science fiction and adventure fans.
