A collection of the best of Christopher Priest's short fiction, spanning four decades of eerie, affecting, emotional work.

Christopher Priest is one of the most acclaimed writers of both S[cience] F[iction] and literary fiction at word today. Here, for the first time in almost twenty years, is a collection of his short work. Largely previously uncollected, ranging from the horrific to the touching, the science fictional to the realist, these stories are a perfect demonstration of the breadth and power of Priest's writing.
