<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Comprised of all the fiction written by Crowley between 1976 and 2002, this compilation affords the reader a firsthand look at the evolution of the work of this dazzlingly original American writer.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>A master literary stylist, John Crowley has carried readers to diverse and remarkable places in his award-winning, critically acclaimed novels -- from his classic fable, <em>Little, Big</em>, to his <em>New York Times</em> Notable Book, <em>The Translator</em>. Now, for the first time, all of his short fiction has been collected in one volume, demonstrating the scope, the vision, and the wonder of one of America's greatest storytellers. Courage and achievement are celebrated and questioned, paradoxes examined, and human frailty appreciated in fifteen tales, at once lyrical and provocative, ranging fromthe fantastic to the achingly real. Be it a tale of an expulsion from Eden, a journey through time, the dreams of a failed writer, ora dead woman's ambiguous legacy, each story in <em>Novelties & Souvenirs</em> is a glorious reading experience, offering delights to be savored ... and remembered.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A pleasing introduction to a very interesting writer's several "worlds.""--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em><br><br>"John Crowley is an abundantly gifted writer."--<em>New York Times Book Review</em><br>
