Book Details


First Sentence

"One day in 1963, I stopped in a drugstore on the way home from high school (at the time, spinner racks full of mass-market paperbacks in drugstores were one of the few places in our town where books were available; there was no actual bookstore), and spotted on the rack an anthology called The Unknown, edited by D.R. Bensen."
