Publisher Description: Philip K. Dick Award finalist Includes the Nebula winning story "Creature" What if the world ended on your birthday -- and no one came? What if your grandmother was a superhero? What if the orphan you were raising was a top-secret weapon, looked like Godzilla, and loved singing nursery rhymes? What if poet laureates fought to the death, in stadiums? Emshwiller's books (<i>Joy in Our Cause, Carmen Dog, Ledoyt, </i> and others) have won her a devoted cult following. Her short fiction is about women and men, monsters, obsessions, art, and falling in love. She writes witty, humane, endearingly odd stories that play with all the genres and conventions you can put a name to -- science fiction, Western, romance, postmodern, tabloid, literary -- and some that haven't even been invented yet.
