The Best of R. A. Lafferty

"Civilisations rise and fall in a single night, only to rise again. A family hide their farm from prying eyes in a valley narrow enough to throw a rock across, maybe. Strange men and wise women, the people who secretly rule the world, appear in stories and disappear just as quickly. R.A. Lafferty is one of America's most original voices, a teller of tall-tales, a writer that glimpsed behind the curtain to show us how the world really worked and how funny and absurd it could be. *The Best of R.A. Lafferty* is the definitive collection of Lafferty's work. Selected by Jonathan Strahan and introduced by Neil Gaiman, with forewords by some of the modern masters of fantastic fiction, it will give you an entry into a world will never forget."
