I Loved You in Another Life by David Arnold

I Loved You in Another Life by David Arnold

Cunningly crafted stories full of wonder and intelligence. VanderMeer proves again why he is so essential and why everybody should be reading him.
--Junot Diaz, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of>The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao

Featuring The Situation, a story set in the universe of VanderMeer's bestseller, Borne.

Compared by critics to Borges, Nabokov, and Kafka, contemporary fantasist Jeff VanderMeer (The Southern Reach Trilogy) continues to amaze with this surreal, innovative, and absurdist gathering of award-winning short fiction. Exotic beasts and improbable travelers roam restlessly through these darkly diverting and finely honed tales.

In ?The Situation, a beleaguered office worker creates a child-swallowing manta-ray to be used for educational purposes (once described as Dilbert meets Gormenghast). In ?Three Days in a Border Town, a sharpshooter seeks the truth about her husband in an elusive floating city beyond a far-future horizon; ?Errata follows an oddly familiar writer who has marshaled a penguin, a shaman, and two pearl-handled pistols with which to plot the end of the world. Also included are two stories original to this collection, including ?The Quickening, in which a lonely child is torn between familial obligation and loyalty to a maligned talking rabbit.

Chimerical and hypnotic, VanderMeer leads readers into a new literature of the imagination.
