Beloved for the lens of the strange he places on small-town life, Steven Millhauser further reveals in this anthology the darkest parts of our inner selves to brilliant and dazzling effect. Here are stories of wondrously imaginative hyperrealism, stories that pose unsettling what-ifs or that find barely perceivable evils within the safe boundaries of our towns, homes and even our bodies. Here, too, are stories culled from religion and fables: from Samuel, who hears the voice of God calling him in the night; to a young, pre-enlightenment Buddha; to Rapunzel and her prince, awakened only to discover everyday disappointment.
