    • Román Daniela Wallacea Veľká ryba (1998) je príbehom Edwarda Blooma, notorického rozprávača a vtipkára, ktorý nedokáže hovoriť pravdu a každú svoju skúsenosť či zážitok zveličí a prikrášli do fantastických rozmerov. Edwardov syn ho opisuje ako "Santa Klausa skríženého s veľkonočným zajačikom - obaja sú veľmi smiešni a rovnako tak aj neskutoční". To, čo sa pred čitateľmi odvíja ako neuveriteľný príbeh s komickými prvkami, je výsledkom Wallaceovho rozprávačského majstrovstva parodujúceho antické mýty a predovšetkým mýtus, že všetci Južania sú v rozprávaní neprekonateľní. Veľká ryba je veselou knihou o vážnej téme; z úzadia sa neustále ozýva ústredný vzťah medzi synom a otcom, ktorých nanovo spája predzvesť otcovej smrti.

    • Henry Walker was once a world-class magician, performing to sold-out shows in New York. But now he has been reduced to joining Musgrove's Chinese Circus (which at no point in its tour of the deep South has ever included a single Chinese person) as the shambling Negro Magician, whose dark black skin and electric green eyes bewitch most audiences. But one balmy Mississippi night in 1954, Henry disappears in the company of three rowdy white teens and is never seen again. Wallace pieces together Henry's incredible vagabond life – from a deal with a bone-white devil known only as Mr. Sebastian, to the heartrending loss of his sister Hannah – and creates an enchanting tale of love, loss, identity, and the limitation of magic.
