About the Book
A collection of short stories.
Locus Award nominee 2001.
Gene Wolfe is producing the most significant body of short fiction of
any living writer in the SF genre. Some of his stories are science
fiction, some fantasy, some horrific; all are powerfully affecting. It
has been ten years since the last major Wolfe collection, and so Strange Travelers contains a whole decade of achievement.
INCLUDING:
BED AND BREAKFAST: Which begins with the line, "I know an old couple who live near Hell."
AND WHEN THEY APPEAR: A Christmas story that will break your heart.
THE ZIGGURAT: A novella about an invasion.
Some
of these stories were award nominees, some were controversial, all are
unique and beautifully written. This is one of the finest short fiction
collections by any American writer of the 1990s.
