Sometimes sacred and occasionally irreverent, this eclectic anthology of prose and poetry spans from biblical times to the present, from a Native American myth to a classic English nursery rhyme. In A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings, Gabriel Garcia Marquez tells of a decrepit angel who, on his way to take a sick child to heaven, accidentally falls to earth and becomes a neighborhood sideshow (admission five cents apiece). In the opening to Captain Stormfield's Visit to Heaven, Mark Twain lampoons the conventional image of heaven and all its trimmings.
