<p>Literary and speculative essays, many resembling truth, on the paranormal and other imaginative topics - ranging from Madame Blavatsky to make-believe musicians - by Fortnightly Review columnist and novelist James Gallant. "James Gallant writes about some of the most intellectually challenging and inherently fascinating subjects imaginable: the UFO phenomenon, occult materializations and the like. His suggestion that invasions of occult influences become especially likely in disorderly societies like our own-in the gaps, in the interstices of what we think of as the real but which is in fact a social construction, and a wobbly one at that-is compelling." - Jeffrey J. Kripal, J. Newton Rayzor Professor of Religion, Rice University, author of Secret Body: Erotic and Esoteric Currents in the History of Religion</p>

<p><div>James Gallant's highly imaginative story collection provides a kaleidoscopic journey through the evolution of the classical guitar and guitar music as the backdrop to the hurly-burly of western cultural history that includes whimsical cameos of historical characters such as Shakespeare, Walt Whitman, and Jean-Paul Marat. In a style that is reminiscent of Jorge Luis Borges, Italo Calvino, and Peter Cameron, these fictions make twists and turns as surprising and delightful as the music Mr. Gallant celebrates.</div></p>
