Artificial Things
Karen Joy Fowler
An extraordinary collection of short stories. "Praxis" is the story about a theater where the real and unreal collide; "The Poplar Street Study" is Fowler's darkly comic account of an alien invasion; and "The Gates of Ghosts" is in which a child journeys to a strange and deadly world. This anthology of 13 tales also features a new foreword by the author.
