Book Description
“Tidhar is a genius at conjuring realities that are just two steps to the left of our own.” –NPR “A warped genius... There is no one like him.” – Ian McDonald With an introduction by Silvia Moreno-Garcia, author of New York Times Bestseller Mexican Gothic Lavie Tidhar’s ground-breaking, award winning novel A Man Lies Dreaming introduced Adolf Hitler as a down-at-heels private detective, forced to eke out a miserable living in 1930s London. Forgotten by history, the man now calling himself Wolf is the lowest of the low, suffering fresh humiliations at every turn. Now Wolf is back, in five darkly comic new stories that see him take on blackmail, murder, and theft – not to mention his old comrades. A brilliant alternate history noir with a heart, these stories are in turn shocking, horrifying and comic, as could only come from the mind of World Fantasy Award winner Lavie Tidhar. PRAISE FOR LAVIE TIDHAR’S A MAN LIES DREAMING JERWOOD FICTION UNCOVERED PRIZE WINNER 2015 BRITISH FANTASY AWARD NOMINEE 2015 PREMIO ROMA NOMINEE 2016 GEFFEN PRIZE NOMINEE 2019 DUBLIN LITERATURE AWARD LONGLIST 2016 “Complex, elusive and intriguing” –The Jerusalem Post “Nasty, clever, waspish and witty... a brilliant and potent thought experiment” –The Sunday Herald “Bold and unnerving” –NPR “Damn good” –Jewish Book Council “A wholly original Holocaust story: as outlandish as it is poignant.” –Kirkus (starred review) “A vital, brilliant novel” –Barnes & Noble SFF Blog “Outstanding and moving” –Maxim Jakubowski, LoveReading.co.uk “Gripping... clever and thrilling work” –Buzz Magazine “In turns brutal, harrowing, heartbreaking and intriguing....

Book Description
Reviewing Jarvis's Report in 1856, Isaac Ray wrote: "Never, perhaps, has a statistical inquiry been pursued with such ample provisions against error and imperfection, or with results more worthy of reliance. In all those respects which render such a work of value, --accuracy, completeness, and pertinence, -- we doubt if it has been surpassed."
