Es oscuro, terriblemente oscuro, depresivo y desesperante, pero está escrito con maestría. Luego de leerlo terminé con un sabor amargo similar al que tuve durante meses con 1984 (  )wertygol | Jun 24, 2009 |   The other tales in the collection pale in comparison when held up alongside the title story. This is one for the ages--Ellison has forged an original, literate offering that stands with the finest short fiction of the 20th century. (  )CliffBurns | Nov 22, 2008 | I Have No Mouth & I Must Scream was the first science fiction short story I'd ever read; it was terrifying and I couldn't put it down. It remains my benchmark against which all other horror / scifi stories are compared. ( )Natrushka | Jan 28, 2008 | The title story is one of the finest, and most horrifying, science fiction stories ever. And the others are little gems also; I doubt that Ellison has written a boring phrase in his life. He sure is an ass, though. (  )burnit99 | Jan 13, 2007 | One in a long series of out-of-print Harlan Ellison collections, this contains not only some of his best stories (in particular the title piece, a disturbing work of existentialist horror) but one of the best titles in science fiction. Ellison is always a little hit-and-miss in these collections, particularly when he starts to move away from science fiction territory into standard fiction (when the stories start sounding like "Twilight Zone" rejects). But a few powerful stories carrying the thing through, putting this up with the must reads for sci-fi freaks.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0441363946, Paperback)Harlan Ellison has won more awards for imaginative literature than any other living author, but only aficionados of Ellison's singular work have been aware of another of his passions ... he is a great oral interpreter of his stories.

Contents include: an original introduction; I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream; Laugh Track Grail; "Repent, Harlequin!" said the Ticktockman; The Very Last Day of a Good Woman; The Time of the Eye; Paladin of the Lost Hour; The Lingering Scent of Woodsmoke; and A Boy and His Dog (source of the cult motion picture). This recording is the winner of the International Horror Writers Bram Stoker Award for outstanding non-print media.
