About This Book

Strange Glory Edited by Gerry Goldberg (1997, Paperback)-
It's been 25 years since its debut, but this extraordinary compilation of stories, poems, and illustrations spanned some of the best in short fantastic literature of the 20th Century up until the time of its publication. Its chapters are structured around the parts of a famous Zen fable of a man searching for his missing ox and deal with themes of the nature of reality, life, death, divinity, darkness, light, and transcendance. The text is adorned with lavish quotes and esoteric graphics. Authors, poets, and artists appearing in Strange Glory include H.P. Lovecraft, Roger Zelazny, Jorge Luis Borges, Wallace Stevens, e.e. cummings, Rumi, Virgil Finlay, and Frank Kelly Freas. Truly a collector's item that you will return to again and again!
