Untitled, unsigned introduction to the novelette.
Essay starts: "There's not much to say about this story except that it is a personal favorite of mine. I wrote it in June 1981, quickly, with great passion and conviction, in response to an invitation from the writer Alan Ryan to do a story for an anthology of science fiction stories on religious themes called Perpetual Light."
Essay finishes: "But it has frequently appeared in anthologies ever since. I think I've rarely managed such a depth of characterization — of man and beast — within such a small compass." [Source: PR# 834559]
