Jubilee
"From "The Diamond Pit," a cautionary tale of the corrupting effects of wealth, to the Nebula Award winning "Da Vinci Rising," to "Jubilee," the haunting title story, this short fiction collection represents the most brilliant work in the fantastic to be seen in the last three decades.
Here are dark fables such as "The Black Horn," which introduces a unicorn to modern-day Miami, and the nightmarish "A Quiet Revolution for Death." But Jack Dann's visions can be funny, too, in tales such as "Bad Medicine" and "Fairy Tale," though the comedians and ordinary guys caught up in a world beyond their ken may not always think so. And in works such as "Tattoos" and "Kaddish," Dann addresses the ultimate human hope of redemption."--BOOK JACKET.
