Just finished Nigger of the "Narcissus". Despite the awful title, I'm tempted to give this collection 5 stars on the basis of this story alone. It is hands down one of the greatest things I've ever read, and the prose only seems to grow stronger from one page to the next.

[The tug] resembled an enormous and aquatic blackbeetle, surprised by the light, overwhelmed by the sunshine, trying to escape with ineffectual effort into the distant gloom of the land. She left a lingering smudge of smoke on the sky, and two vanishing trails of foam on the water. On the place where she had stopped a round black patch of soot remained, undulating on the swell--an unclean mark of the creature's rest.
