Explore contemporary natural history in a baker's dozen of exhilarating visions. Praise for Jeffrey Ford: "Outstanding. . . . Ford uses . . . incongruously lyrical phrases to infuse the everyday with a nebulous magic.""Publishers Weekly, " Best Books of the Year(Starred Review) "For lovers of the weird and fantastic and lovers of great writing, this is a treasure trove of disturbing visions, new worlds and fully realized craft.""Shelf Awareness "(Starred Review) "Properly creepy, but from time to time deliciously funny and heart-breakingly poignant, too.""Kirkus Reviews "(Starred Review) Jeffrey Ford was born on Long Island in New York State in 1955 and grew up in the town of West Islip.
