SHORT STORIES
Worlds Without End. By Clifford Simak. Herbert Jenkins. 176 pp.
The two novelettes and one short story in this volume are as imaginative and wellwritten as the rest of Gifford Simak’s works. ‘The Spaceman’s Van Gogh” is a poetical short story in the semimystical style sb typical of much of Mr Simak’s writing. “Worlds Without End,!’ if not the most memorable of science fiction novelettes, is an entertaining and imaginative tale of a future society in which suspended animation is offered as a consumer product. “Full Cycle,” the other novelette, gives a convincing picture of a society in which, as the result of the disintegration of the metropolitan way of life, civilisation has “returned” to the age of roving tribal groups.
