Product Description

Review
"Michael Bishop [is] one of the best short story writers in the field today."

Product Description
Seventeen of writer Michael Bishop's favourite stories were handpicked from his previously uncollected works to create this compelling collection, providing an excellent overview of a career that includes award-winning science fiction, horror, fantasy, satire, space opera, and mystery. In 'A Tapestry of Little Murders', a murderer attempts to escape along a literal road to self-destruction. A medical missionary, tortured by government thugs, reveals her dying wish in 'With a Little Help from Her Friends'. In 'The Procedure', an operation to remove a tumourous growth will hopefully excise from the patient's mind and body all tendencies toward faith and superstition. From futuristic mystery and Vietnam-era dark fantasy to theological speculation on Christ's death, a variety of lyrical voices speak through these haunting stories. An essay by the author divulges the genesis of each story.
