Hailed as "one of the literary giants of SF" by the Denver Post,
Gene Wolfe has repeatedly won the field's highest honors, including the
Nebula, the Hugo, and the World Fantasy awards.
Peace is Gene Wolfe's first full-length novel, a work that shows the
genius that later flourished in such acclaimed works as The Fifth Head
of Cerberus and The Book of The New Sun.
Originally published in 1975, Peace 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, Peace ranks alongside the finest literary
works of our time.
