Publisher's Note
With language as dazzling as the wondrous visionary landscapes they evoke, these seventeen works transport the reader to worlds in which sleep is illegal, the lives of lonely department store clerks are transformed by fairies, the rich wear coal jewelry on an island of diamonds, and the living laminate their dead. Here is a universe where rooms go missing, women give birth to their lovers, and the young contemplate God's creative powers through pet tortoises.

Industry reviews
"She's a modern writer, a modern thinker, but the stark choices she presents in these stories place her firmly in intellectual traditions that belong to the previous century."
San Francisco Chronicle Book Review - Susan Salter Reynolds (03/14/1999)

"Excess and intensity are the key words here, admirable both as character traits and as components of a lively literary style."
Washington Post Book World - Steven Moore (03/21/1999)

"[T]he author's surreal imagination lifts her prose to a level of whimsy that feels anything but formulaic..."
Armstrong
