A gem of a collection. The essays on literature and criticism are fine. Notable also for an hilarious discussion of science fiction between Brian Aldiss, Lewis and Kingsly Amis (!). Watch for the latter's monopolization of the scotch decanter. The short fragment of a story "Ten Years Later" has stayed with me for at least ten years...

"The trap I remember forever: how they got out I have long since forgotten." ( )

A grab bag of Lewis's writings about science fiction and story telling, plus three (minor) short stories and the fragments of his unfinished last novel. My review is at http://stromata.tripod.com/id135.htm ( )
