THE ROOTS OF EVIL: Weird Stories of Supernatural Plants

Now that we talk to them--let them talk to you: H. G. Wells strange orchid and Fredric Brown's daisies and Manly Wade Wellman's strange blooms in a swamp. Other sf contributors include Clifford Simak, Fritz Leiber; there's a Nathaniel Hawthorne (""Rappacini's Daughter"") and the marvelously unsettling ""Green Thoughts"" of the marvelous John Collier. Twelve in all--the other contributors will be less familiar to an American audience.
