Acerca de este libro electrónico
Exerpt: "When the alarm signalled the first whiff of the atmosphere of the next planet on his route, Herl Hofner stopped chinning by his strapping six-foot self and left the little gym. Slipping into the swivel chair at the desk he clipped the pile of loose papers into an empty niche at the side of the desk, spun the chair around to the instrument panel of the Krylla. Dialing with his left hand, he swept the bank for incoming signals while his right hand adjusted the microphone frequencies. "Class M-for-Mary ship requesting permission to land. Do you have automatic beam landing device? Class M-for-Mary ship requesting permission to land. Do you have automatic beam landing?" His dial pointer swept back and forth. "Come in, class M-for-Mary." Herl's left hand moved to the autobeam switch. "What band for M-for-Mary landing? What band for M-for-Mary landing?" "Come in on seventy-three point eight, M-for-Mary. Come in on seventy-three point eight, M-for-Mary.""
Acerca del autor
Betsy Curtis, an enigmatic figure in mid-20th century American literature, carved a niche for herself with her incisive and thought-provoking short stories. Born in 1922, Curtis grew up during the Great Depression, a period that profoundly influenced her worldview and literary voice. Her works often grapple with themes of social justice, gender dynamics, and the human condition, reflecting the tumultuous times she lived through, including World War II and the Civil Rights Movement.Curtis was a trailblazer, unafraid to challenge societal norms and push the boundaries of conventional storytelling. Her narratives are marked by a unique blend of realism and speculative fiction, a combination that allowed her to explore complex issues in innovative ways. Despite facing significant resistance from a predominantly male literary establishment, Curtis's perseverance and talent earned her a dedicated following and critical acclaim.One of the most intriguing aspects of Curtis's career is her influence on contemporary writers. Her bold exploration of feminist themes and her critique of societal structures paved the way for future generations of authors. Curtis's legacy is evident in the works of writers who continue to address issues of inequality and human rights.Curtis's personal life was as compelling as her fiction. Known for her reclusive nature, she shunned public attention, allowing her work to speak for itself. This enigmatic quality only added to her allure, making her a subject of fascination and speculation among literary circles. Betsy Curtis remains a pivotal figure in American literature, her stories resonating with readers and writers alike, inspiring them to question, to dream, and to rebel.
