Once upon a time, the entire world was in darkness. There were human inhabitants of the earth, but they could hardly see but a few feet in front of their hands. They had been born of the dark clay of the earth and the breath of the creator god but they had no language, no arts, and spent all their days looking for food in the darkness. Of course, they could not plant anything so the best they could do was forage for roots and insects in the never-ending night.

Sometimes they would show the ball to the world in the darkness. Depending on how they gripped it, it would look like a fist or a crescent shape.
Not all creatures were in as dire straits as the humans. The great scavenger bird...

For a time, the raven flew with the fire in his mouth, pleased with his victory. Now everyone could see…

Grendel And After that it's Elephants All the Way Done Wagner's Grendel is one of the most finely crafted pieces of postmodern fiction because it performs both of the functions with which postmodern literature is tasked.
