Technical Slip
Take a journey into the extraordinary mind of one of the twentieth century’s most brilliant—and neglected—science fiction and horror writers, with fifteen stories that are bound to get under your skin. Wyndham was a master of marrying the bizzare with the banal--taking everyday situations and adding a touch of the fantastic to shock and delight. A man on his deathbed is given the opportunity to re-live his life; a Welsh couple receives a mysterious egg from their son traveling abroad; a woman who writes a novel based on her vivid dreams discovers she isn't the only one experiencing them; a scientist seeks to create "the Perfect Creature"; a London commuter train becomes more and more packed, seemingly headed straight to hell...and more!
John Wyndham
