Outstanding Shorter Stories

This is a collection of short stories and at least one novelette (The Children's Crusade) from the same future as Davy. The title story is about a monk who, tho forced to recant, still persists in wondering . . . . Like "Davy," these stories take place mostly in what is left of New York State after the melting of the polar ice caps. Place names have changed, but not beyond recognition. If you are not familiar with the Mohawk and Hudson valleys, it might be useful to have a map of New York State available when you read this and "Davy." This is some of the best shorter fiction I have ever read. watziznaym@gmail.com

Worth looking for in a used book store

I have discovered over the years that there are books I enjoy, and books I FEEL like I SHOULD enjoy. Pangborn's novel Davy falls in the second category. But this collection of his short stories contains some very memorable stories (I remember the last story in the book even as I write this and I haven't looked at the book in at least 10 years.)
