ReviewsMr. Wallace brings us, time and again, to hidden, mythic places that are strange yet oddly familiar. He succeeds in restoring grandeur to modern fiction., A collection of stories as varied in length and theme as they are imaginative, and downright bizarre as any collection by one author has a right to be.... Truly funny surreal humor., These stories say something serious and sincere about the world that the rest of us have to live in.

not an easy read, but once you get his rhythm and can handle his admittedly excessive sentences, more than worth the effort -- the guy was a genius, r.i.p.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
