A collection of three novellas united by the common subject of terrible worlds.
These novellas are as imaginative and intelligent as I've come to expect from Tchaikovsky. He has a knack for inventing complex worlds and presenting them in a challenging, yet still accessible way.
My favorite in the collection is And Put Away Childish Things, wherein a washed-up actor discovers the Narnia-esque fantasy world his grandmother wrote about is real. It's kind of sad and a bit scary, but ends on a more or less hopeful note.
