Beschreibungen
John Crowley's all-new essay ';Totalitopia' is a wry how-to guide for building utopias out of the leftovers of modern science fiction. ';This Is Our Town,' written especially for this volume, is a warm, witty, and wonderfully moving story about angels, cousins, and natural disasters based on a parochial school third-grade reader. One of Crowley's hard-to-find masterpieces, ';Gone' is a Kafkaesque science fiction adventure about an alien invasion that includes door-to-door leafleting and yard work. Perhaps the most entertaining of Crowley's ';Easy Chair' columns in Harper's, ';Everything That Rises' explores the fractal interface between Russian spiritualism and quantum singularitieswith a nod to both Columbus and Flannery O'Connor. ';And Go Like This' creeps in from Datlow's Year's Best, the Wild Turkey of horror anthologies.Plus: There's a bibliography, an author bio, and of course our Outspoken Interview, the usual cage fight between candor and common sense.
