Written between 1957 and 1960, these short stories by the sci-fi master establish the author as a fine craftsman of short fiction in the genre, taking readers from the space race of the 1950s on Earth to Mars and beyond, in such works as "The Man Who Told Lies," "A Touch of Strange," "It Opens the Sky," "The Graveyard Reader," and the title story.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. By the winner of the Hugo, the Nebula, and the World Fantasy Life Achievement Awards, this latest volume finds Theodore Sturgeon in fine form as he gains recognition for the first time as a literary short story writer. Written between 1957 and 1960, when Sturgeon and his family lived in both America and Grenada, finally settling in Woodstock, New York, these stories reflect his increasing preference for psychology over ray guns. Stories such as "The Man Who Told Lies," "A Touch of Strange," and "It Opens the Sky" show influences as diverse as William Faulkner and John Dos Passos. Always in touch with the zeitgeist, Sturgeon takes on the Russian Sputnik launches of 1957 with "The Man Who Lost the Sea," switching the scene to Mars and injecting his trademark mordancy and vivid wordplay into the proceedings. These mature stories also don't stint on the scares, as "The Graveyard Reader"?one of Boris Karloff's favorite stories?shows. Acclaimed novelist Jonathan Lethem's foreword neatly summarizes Sturgeon's considerable achievement here. Edited and with story notes by Paul Williams. White cloth-covered boards with black lettering on spine. This is a used book. Pages are clean and bright with no markings, notes, or highlighting. DJ shows only minor shelf wear with no rubbing or soiling and is not price clipped. No owner's marks or bookplates, not ex-library. Remainder stamp on bottom of text block. Binding is tight and square with no fading on boards. Corners not bumped. An excellent reading copy. Seller Inventory # L1033
