- "This tale may be true: truth about faraway places and remote days is elusive ... 'The Red Shadow' was suggested to this purveyor by reading 'The Wonderful History of Peter Schlemihl,' by A. von Chamisso - an engaging fantasy and allegory concerning a man who sold his shadow to the Devil. Forever, we hope, there will be fairy tales and a world of make-believe. May old tales be retold and new tales conjured."--Preamble.
