About this Item

First edition/printing. Book and jacket each in As New, unread condition. No UK edition. Signed and dated by author. ".The Gift (1997), a fantasy couched within an abstract sf frame, even more explicitly structured as dramatic rendering of the nature of Story and Storytelling, for the eponymous gift is precisely the gift of storytelling that wizards from another world have bestowed upon a race of bipeds, enabling them to become human. Again, moments of Equipoise ? including a vision of a Dystopia far into the future ? give the narrative a compelling edginess, a sense that some revelation may be imminent, perhaps at the hand of an unseen God.
