I've said more than once that John Crowley's novel Little Big is the startof a lot of modern/urban/contemporary fantasy and probably the greatest of the mdoern fairy tales. It's an absolute masterwork of modern fiction with deeplroots in the fairy lore of Victorian England while still being deeply infused with the American spirit. Its one of those books that I've lent out and not received back more than I can count.

For the book's 25th anniversary Incunabula Press is doing a special edition with critical introduction from Harold Bloom. I've been eying this for a while but the $95 price tag makes me keep hesitating. But it looks like the the book is actually going to happen and now I want it once more.
