Eloquent and entertaining [The Times Literary Supplement],deep and remarkable, one of the favourite Neil Gaiman';s novels : PEACE by Gene Wolfe. The Nebula and World Fantasy Award-winning author of The Fifth Head of Cerberus here presents the memoir of Alden Dennis Weer, told as he apparently lives out his last years in the same Midwestern town he was born in—a melancholy yet amiable series of tales. But his story reveals that Weer has been around more than his fair share of death, which is likely not a coincidence. As the narrative unfolds, it seems Weer';s imagination can reshape reality, obliterate time, and even transcend death itself.
