This contains some of the marvels of those thirty years. Many of them are marvels of the last century as well. They are:
Poor Little Warrior; Brian Aldiss (1958) Dreaming is a Private Thing; Isaac Asimov (1955) Fondly Fahrenheit; Alfred Bester (1954) The Quest for Saint Aquin; Anthony Boucher (1951) The Gnurrs Come From the VoodVork Out; R. Bretnor (1950) Through Time and Space with Ferdinand Feghoot; Grendel Briarton (1956) Selectra Six-Ten; Avram Davidson (1970) We Can Remember It For You Wholesale; Philip K. Dick (1966) Problems of Creativeness; Thomas M. Disch (1967) Jeffty is Five; Harlan Ellison (1977) Ararat; Zenna Hendorson (1952) One Ordinary Day, With Peanuts; Shirley Jackson (1954) Flowers For Algernon; Daniel Keyes (1959) Not With A Bang; Damon Knight (1950) Born of Man and Woman; Richard Matheson (1950) A Canticle for Leibowitz; Walter M. Miller, Jr (1955) Sundance; Robert Silverberg (1969) ...And Now The News; Theodore Sturgeon (1956) The Women Men Don't See; James Tiptree, Jr (1973) Three Cartoons; Gahan Wilson (1965, 1966, 1974) Love Letter From Mars; John Ciardi (1964) Me; Hilbert Schenck, Jr (1959) Imaginary Numbers in a Real Garden; Gerald Jonas (1965) Dance Music for a Gone Planet; Sonya Dorman (1968)
It's quite amazing to realize I read nearly all of these in the original, and so long ago. Some of these were the first entry into the marketplace by the author; others were by people not associated otherwise with the field. On the whole, it's an excellent addition to my library. ( )
