| Description |
| These ten stories, show the author at his best, displaying what Malcolm Bradbury calls his "remarkable gift for filling the empty, deprived spaces of modernlife with the invisible cities and wonder world of imagination." Consider, for example, "The Secret History of World War 3", which concerns Ronald Reagan'sreturn to the White House after too brief a retirement. Soon the country is oblivios to all except the ceaseless reports on his health broadcast live from the Oval Office. |
