โฆ Synopsis
Short stories from the science fiction masterincluding the tale that inspired 2001: A Space Odyssey. These stories present a brilliant showcase of Arthur C.Clarkes many-layered approach to the moral dilemmas of scientific advancementfrom the thrilling and brutal Breaking Strain to the more poetic and thoughtful Second Dawn. Also included is The Sentinelthe basis for the classic Stanley Kubrick film 2001: A Space Odyssey. This outstanding collection reminds us that the author of Childhoods End was not only a giant in the world of science fiction, a recipient of multiple Nebula and Hugo Awards, and an incomparable storyteller, but also a skilled literary artist (Hartford Courant). I do not know of any short story that has moved me more than Arthur C. Clarkes If I Forget Thee, Oh Earth. The Christian Science Monitor
