Greetings from Earth Author:Scott Bradfield In these twenty-one provocative, inventive fictions, many sf or fantasy, we explore the normal and supernatural worlds. You will encounter a man who dreams of himself as an Arctic wolf, a creature that slowly makes its way into the waking world; a hostile housewife who cultivates out-of-body experiences and imagines how her existence might serve... more » as the basis for a movie starring Jessica Lange; and the perceptions of an autistic child for whom the world and words are the same thing, equally solid and equally malleable.
Bradfield's stories are psychologically compelling and hilarious, particularly when he mixes the supernatural with the mundane. Each one of these stories demonstrates his singularly rich language and imagination.
This is an expansion of the 1988 collection The Secret Life of Houses (Unwin Hyman), which was previously expanded as Dream of the Wolf (Knopf 1990).
