"De Lint is a master of the modern urban folk tale." -- The Denver Post "De Lint's writing is as good as ever, and his folkloric scholarship remains outstanding." -- Booklist "This fanciful and moving collection of 15 tales, some loosely related with common characters, probes deeply into the nature of art and the souls of the poor and downtrodden....De Lint's evocative images, both ordinary and fantastic, jolt the imagination." -- Publisher's Weekly, "De Lint is a master of the modern urban folk tale." --The Denver Post "De Lint's writing is as good as ever, and his folkloric scholarship remains outstanding." --Booklist "This fanciful and moving collection of 15 tales, some loosely related with common characters, probes deeply into the nature of art and the souls of the poor and downtrodden....De Lint's evocative images, both ordinary and fantastic, jolt the imagination." --Publisher's Weekly

Synopsis
In the city of Newford, when the stars and the vibes are right, you can touch magic. Mermaids sing in the murky harbor, desert spirits crowd the night, and dreams are more real than waking. Charles de Lint began his chronicles of the extraordinary city of Newford in Memory & Dream and the short-story collection Dreams Underfoot . In The Ivory and the Horn, this uncommonly gifted craftsman weaves a new tapestry of stark realism and fond hope, mean streets and boulevards of dreams, where you will rediscover the power of love and longing, of wishes and desires, and of the magic that hovers at the edge of everyday life.
