"One of the most influential writers in American Literature." "There is no other writer whose work has exhilarated me as often and to such an extent as Heinlein." "Not only America's premier writer of speculative fiction, but the greatest writer of such fiction in the world … remains today as a sort of trademark for all that is finest in American imaginative fiction." The story "All You Zombies-" is the basis for PREDESTINATION from Sony Pictures, just released in the US on January 9, 2015, starring Ethan Hawke, directed and written by the Spierig Brothers. Heinlein's brilliance and diverse talents are on display in this collection of five short stories that range from mind-twisters ("All You Zombies-"), paranoia and surprise ("They-"), hilarious engineering conundrums ("-And They Built a Crooked House"), fantasies ("Our Fair City), and the beautiful, heart-breaking "The Man Who Travelled in Elephants". ![]()
