Haunted by "Strange Dreams"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I read this collection twice through, one after the other, when I was in high school and would loved to have reread it again but I lost track of it. I'm not one who rereads books more than once because they tend to stick with me for a long time. Well, with Strange Dreams, that happened, but I also got incredibly hooked on the stories. As Stephen Donaldson writes in his intro to this collection, these are stories that resonate with you, that never leave you. Filled with short stories by classic authors such as Greg Bear and Franz Kafka, there are newer authors such as Orson Scott Card and Nancy Kress. I should add to that, however, that no story in it newer than 1987, heh. I was searching for this book, off and on, for three years, and during that time I could still see the story of "The Fallen Country" by Somtow Sucharitkul and "The House of Compassionate Sharers" by Michael Bishop. Stories you will never forget.
