Ellison, H: Greatest Hits + nemokamas atvežimas! | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

How to summarize the psychedelic, witty, helter-skelter mind of Harlan Ellison?

A mind that refused to be contained by something as rudimentary as genre, form, or even a particular label. A mind that created some of the most outrageous short stories and novellas of the science fiction, fantasy, and speculative genres – including “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream,” with its unhinged artificial intelligence bent on torturing what is left of humanity, and “Jeffty Is Five,” featuring a young boy’s mysterious, time-bending powers. A mind that passionately identified with the underdog, sometimes with disastrous results. A mind incandescent with fury, that saw storytelling as “a holy chore.”

Assembled by the Harlan and Susan Ellison Foundation, Greatest Hits is an overview of Ellison’s award-winning and highly acclaimed short stories – as well as the stories that Ellison himself most treasured. Featuring a preface by Ellison’s executor and friend J. Michael Straczynski, a foreword by award-winning and bestselling author Neil Gaiman, and an introduction by bestselling author Cassandra Khaw, this collection of short stories and novellas serves as a guide to a writer who left his mark on the twentieth century – and whose legacy is in your hands.
