The topical diversity of the collection as a whole is shown in my catalog keyword tagging: death, fairy, high fantasy, metafiction, nautical, satan, weird fiction. I had not previously read anything by Tanith Lee, and her story "Mirage and Magia" is very Dunsanian. Michael Shea's "The Horror on the #33" speculates on the pleasures of drunken vagrancy and reinvents the angel of death. The longest story is "Another Orphan," a peculiar fantasia on Moby Dick, which turned out to be surprisingly satisfying. The fact that three stories ("Other," "Lest Levitation Come Upon Us," and "Djinn, No Chaser") have housewife protagonists is a little surprising in this sort of genre collection, and none of them measure up to Robert Irwin's Limits of Vision. Still, they were each worth the read, even if the punnishingly-titled last of them (by Harlan Ellison) is rather cornball.
