Synopsis
Eight stories by science fiction's finest prose stylist... Speculation, not science, is Wilhelm's forte, and these stories deal with a town in a state of perpetual intellectual somnambulism, two strange hounds that show up on the stoop of a young housewife's home, a man and a woman who take refuge from a snow storm in a bus stop, and a woman who abandons her dreary family to dream about adventures on Mars. -- Booklist
