by C. M. Kornbluth ‧ RELEASE DATE: Oct. 2, 1958
A posthumous volume of shorts, long shorts and novella length excursions into unexplored boundaries -- of space, society, morals and customs -- this is based on knowables stretched beyond current knowledge. Whether it turns on a pun... ""everybody does things about the weather, but nobody talks about it""...or roots itself in a bit of history or follows the effects of a magical medical kit or envisions visitors from -- and to -- far places or the overturning of possible regimes -- there's an artful dodge to most of the tales and a practiced handling. For the cult, as before.
