J'ai pas de resumé, j'ai pas la nouvelle.
Je sait pas ce que c'est et j'ai juste trouvé ca dans une bibliographie de
zelazny quelque part sur le web (pas gardé la page :( )
cependant, si on cherche sur amazon, on trouve:

***** Without doubt, Zelazny's BEST..., December 7, 1999
Reviewer: Vincent Hendricks (see more about me) from Houston, TX
Okay, so I've got a biased view-point. I love Zelazny's work. His "Chronicles of
Amber" series was one of the first science fiction/fantasy works on an "adult
level" that I read (I was maybe 12 at the time), and his twisted, convoluted
style of writing had me turning page after page, unable to put the book down.
"Unicorn Variations" represents much of that style. It examines man's failures
under pressure, (and ironically) man's ability to perform extrodinary feats under
that same pressure. It uses an oft-humuorous touch to describe a serious subject.
It draws upon fantasy to explain reality. Get the picture? Rarely does Zelazny
ever come right out and say what he means; it's much more fun to keep the reader
guessing the whole way through.
The version I have of the audio tape is read by Star Trek/Deep Space 9's Odo
(Rene something-or-other -- sorry, his last name escapes me at this time); I
enjoyed listening to it almost as much as reading the story for myself...
***** Must-have for Zelazny fans, August 7, 1999
Reviewer: A reader from Washington state
This is an excellent collection of Zelazny short stories. "The George Business"
is particularly good. If I could only own one Zelazny book, this would be it.
***** This is taken directly off of the back of the book., January 28, 1999
Reviewer: A reader from Nebraska, United States Of America
"MORE BEER," quoth the griffin. Man's reign on Earth is almost over. Waiting in
the wings are the creatures of myth and legend that our reality has denied
existence for too long: the boisterous griffin, the thoughtful sasquatch, and the
most dangerous of all, the charming, but devious, unicorn... Deeply whimsical and
delightfully disturbing, "Unicorn Variation" is one of the most acclaimed of
Zelazny's recent works. Also included in this new collection are the Hugo-winning
novella "Home Is the Hangman"; the rescued-from-oblivion "My Lady of the Diodes";
and speculative voyages both awesome and smaIll such as "A Hand Across the
Galaxy," "The Horses of Lir, "Go Starless in the Night," "The Naked Matador," and
much more from a modern master who has received over twenty Hugo and Nebula
awards and nominations.

Personnelement, j'ai pas l'impression que ca soit en rapport avec ambre, mais je
doute quand meme. J'ai parle de ca sur la ml en esperant que quelqu'un saurait
mais c'est manifestemenbt pas le cas...

ben moi aussi, surtout que celui la a l'air en raport avec ambre, mais personne a
l'air de connaitre...

Intuitivement, je dirais qu'Unicorn variation est un recueil de nouvelles et que
Rapsody in Amber est une des nouvelles de UV, la seule qui parle d'ambre.
Comme je m'appuis sur rien d'autre que mon intuition pour dire ca, je vous
conseil quand meme de pas trop en tenir compte.
A+
