Dayenu and Other Stories — James Sallis

Reflecting as always his deep respect for classic science fiction, fantasy, and crime fiction, DAYENU AND OTHER STORIES collects 22 of Jim's new tales. Bluesmen whose thoughts become real, chatty philosophic spiders, revenant cars, thawed-out hitmen, TVs reporting people to police, a character condemned to life as a sidekick in hack novels—all from the mind that spawned the Lew Griffin novels, Willnot, Sarah Jane, and Drive.Fiction.
