Peace -- Gene Wolfe

<p><b> Hailed as one of the literary giants of SF by the <i>Denver Post</i>, Gene Wolfe has repeatedly won the field's highest honors, including the Nebula, the Hugo, and the World Fantasy awards. </b> <p/><i>Peace </i>is Gene Wolfe's first full-length novel, a work that shows the genius that later flourished in such acclaimed works as <i>The Fifth Head of Cerberus </i>and <i>The Book of The New Sun</i>. <p/>Originally published in 1975, <i>Peace </i>is a spellbinding, brilliant tour de force of the imagination. The melancholy memoir of Alden Dennis Weer, an embittered old man living out his last days in a small midwestern town, the novel reveals a miraculous dimension as the narrative unfolds. For Weer's imagination has the power to obliterate time and reshape reality, transcending even death itself. Powerfully moving and uncompromisingly honest, <i>Peace </i>ranks alongside the finest literary works of our time.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Gene Wolfe<br><b>Publisher:</b> Orb Books<br><b>Published:</b> 12/11/2012<br><b>Pages:</b> 320<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.60lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.20h x 5.51w x 0.83d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780765334565<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br><p><b>Gene Wolfe (1931-2019)</b> was the Nebula Award-winning author of The Book of the New Sun tetralogy in the Solar Cycle, as well as the World Fantasy Award winners <i>The Shadow of the Torturer</i> and <i>Soldier of Sidon</i>.
