Eating Memories

Eating Memories: Worlds of Terror and Delight from a Master of Science Fiction

Here is the essential Patricia Anthony. Eating Memories spans a decade of stirring short fiction from the award-winning author of God’s Fires, Brother Termite, and Flanders—a collection that cements Patricia Anthony’s reputation as a writer who takes the term “speculative fiction” to an entirely different level.

Praise for Eating Memories:

“Excellent ... Anthony’s stories are surprising and challenging, sweeping readers into the minds of a paranoid schizophrenic, a retarded man, a young Air Force pilot kidnapped by extraterrestrials, a boy who remembers the future and a Victorian-era lady whose passion for scientific research is her downfall and her salvation.” —Publishers Weekly

“Anthony successfully carries the tragedy of human existence to other worlds and evokes a wistfulness reminiscent of Ray Bradbury.”—Booklist

“Eloquent and moving ... Though many of these works have an edgy emotional darkness to them, poignant and unsettling, the author also has a sense of humor, wry and equally unsettling.”—Locus

”Irreverent and sincere, Patricia Anthony entertains and illuminates. In an earlier age, she would have been burned at the stake. In this time, Patricia Anthony should receive the highest of literary accolades.” —Nova Express
