The Best Time Travel Stories of the 20th Century

Cover The Best Time Travel Stories of the 20th Century
Sturgeon began publishing science fiction in 1939, and made his mark early in both fantasy and science fiction with stories that have since become classics. “Microcosmic God” concerns a scientist who plays God with unexpectedly amusing results when he repeatedly challenges a microscopic race he has created with threats to their survival. “It” focuses on the reactions of characters in a rural setting trying to contend with a rampaging inhuman monster. “Killdozer” is a variation on the theme of F...rankenstein in which a construction crew is trapped on an island where a bulldozer has become imbued with the electrical energy of an alien life form.
    Fiction Sturgeon wrote after World War II showed the gentle humor of his earlier work shading into pathos. “Memorial” and “Thunder and Roses” were cautionary tales about the abuses of use of nuclear weapons. “A Saucer of Loneliness” and “Maturity”
    both used traditional science- fiction scenarios to explore feelings of alienation and inadequacy.
