Description

The stories gathered here range from speculative thought experiments to biting parodies, each grounded in Tenn's distinctive voice-wry, intelligent, and unafraid to challenge convention. Whether examining alien encounters, alternate realities, or the unintended consequences of technological progress, Tenn consistently turns familiar science fiction premises on their head, revealing deeper truths beneath the surface.

Long regarded as a master of satirical science fiction, William Tenn occupies a unique place in the Golden Age and post-Golden Age tradition. His work bridges the gap between classic pulp storytelling and more modern, self-aware speculative fiction, influencing generations of writers who followed.

This edition presents Tenn's stories in a clean, readable format, preserving the original text while making it accessible for contemporary readers and collectors of classic science fiction.
