Description
This short story anthology by the author of The Godhead Trilogy "reveals him to be one of the wittiest writers of contemporary speculative fiction" (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
Join the Abominable Snowman as, determined to transcend his cannibalistic past, he studies Tibetan Buddhism under the Dalai Lama. Pace the walls of Ilium with fair Helen as she tries to convince both sides to abandon their absurd Trojan War. Visit the nursery of Zenobia Garber, born to a Pennsylvania farm couple who accept her for the uncanny little biosphere she is. Scramble aboard the raft built by the passengers and crew of the sinking Titanic-and don't be surprised when the vessel transmutes into a world even more astonishing than the original Ship of Dreams.
Reality by Other Means offers readers the most celebrated results from James Morrow's decades-long career designing fictive thought experiments. Anchored by seven previously uncollected stories, this omnibus ranges from social satire to theological hijinks, steampunk escapades to philosophical antics.
