Description:
In these three novellas Steven Millhauser creates a poetry of the impossible that blithely crosses the threshold between the "real" world and the imaginary landscapes of art.
Expand description
In "The Little Kingdom of J. Franklin Payne", a gentle eccentric constructs an elaborate alternate universe that is all the more appealing for being transparently unreal. "The Princess, the Dwarf, and the Dungeon" is at once a gothic tale of nightmarish jealousy and a meditation on the human need for exaltation and horror. And "Catalogue of the Exhibition" introduces us to the oeuvre of Edmund Moorash, a Romantic painter of a uniquely eerie artistry. Exuberantly inventive, as mysterious as dreams, Little Kingdoms will delight, mesmerize, and transport anyone who reads it.
