The biography of the vanished Duncan Shriek written by his sister Janice but annotated (in brackets) by Duncan after Janice disappears (perhaps!). This book examines art, history, madness, war, big business, books, family, love and above all, truth. A bleakly ironic style has made the city of Anbergris a must-visit destination for SF fans. Will also appeal to fans of Borges (Ambergris's bookstore is named after him), Murakami, Bulgakov and other authors who examine the 'magically real'.
