520    Kij Johnson's haunting novella The Dream-Quest of Vellitt 
       Boe is both a commentary on a classic H.P. Lovecraft tale 
       and a profound reflection on a woman's life. Vellitt's 
       quest to find a former student who may be the only person 
       who can save her community takes her through a world 
       governed by a seemingly arbitrary dream logic in which she
       occasionally glimpses an underlying but mysterious order, 
       a world ruled by capricious gods and populated by the 
       creatures of dreams and nightmares. Those familiar with 
       Lovecraft's work will travel through a fantasy landscape 
       infused with Lovecraftian images viewed from another 
       perspective, but even readers unfamiliar with his work 
       will be enthralled by Vellitt's quest. A remarkable 
       accomplishment that repays rereading
