Description:
"Webs within webs, circles within circles, [Delany's] imaginationcreates a mirror of the oceanic density of our times, and leaves you asking for more."- The Village Voice "A grand jobthese tales of Samuel Delany's have a fine, rich strangeness. Beautifully intricate and gloriously mystifying, all this intricate tapestry of advanced science and decayed society the author has portrayed marvelously well." --P. Schuyler Miller, Analog Magazine "A writer of consistently high ambition and achievementDelany's fiction demands-and rewards-the kind of close reading that one ungrudgingly brings to the serious novelists.Sentence, phrase by phrase, [he] invites the reader to collaborate in the process of creation. The reader who accepts this invitation has an extraordinarily satisfying experience in store for him/her." --Gerald Jonas, The New York Times Book Review "Delany has a fearsomely stocked intellect, and a wider range of experience than most writers can even imagine. He is brilliant, driven, prolific." --The Nation
