Harwood Reached The Capital On The Afternoon Of The Second Day After Mrs. Owen And Sylvia Had Gone East, And Went At Once To The Boordman Building. Miss Farrell Was Folding And Sealing Letters Bearing Bassett's Signature. "Hello, Little Stranger; I'd Begun To Think You Had Met With Foul Play, As The Hero Says In Scene Two, Act Three, Of 'The Dark Switch-Lantern'--All Week At The Park Theatre At Prices Within The Reach Of All. Business Has Been Good, If You Press Me For News, But That Paper-Mill Hasn't Had Much Attention Since You Departed This Life. Everybody's Saying 'Stop, Look, Listen!' When In Doubt You Say That,--The White Aprons In The One-Arm Lunch Rooms Say It Now When You Kick On The Size Of The Buns. You Will Find Your Letters In The Left-Hand Drawer. I Told That Collector From The Necktie Foundry That He Needn't Wear Himself To A Shadow Carrying Bills Up Here; That You Paid All Your Bills By Check On The Tenth Of The Month. As That Was The Twenty-Ninth, You'd Better Frame Some New By-Laws To Avoid Other Breaks Like That. I Can't Do Much Lying At My Present Salary." [more]

Robert Sheckley (July 16, 1928 – December 9, 2005) was a Hugo- and Nebula-nominated American author. First published in the science fiction magazines of the 1950s, his numerous quick-witted stories and novels were famously unpredictable, absurdist, and broadly comical. Sheckley was named Author Emeritus by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America in 2001. Robert Sheckley was born to an assimilated Jewish family in Brooklyn, New York. In 1931 the family moved to Maplewood, New Jersey. Sheckley attended Columbia High School, where he discovered science fiction. He graduated in 1946[1] and hitchhiked to California the same year, where he tried numerous jobs: landscape gardener, pretzel salesman, barman, milkman, warehouseman, and general laborer "board man" in a hand-painted necktie studio. Finally, still in 1946, he joined the U.S. Army and was sent to Korea.[2] During his time in the army he served as a guard, an army newspaper editor, a payroll clerk, and guitarist in an army band. He left the service in 1948. [more]
