Collected Stories 2 - Second Variety and Other Classic Stories

Read Collected Stories 2 - Second Variety and Other Classic Stories Storyline:

The stories within SECOND VARIETY were written between 1952 and 1955,
while America was in the grip of McCarthyism. The concerns of the time
are reflected in stories such as "Second Variety", which tells of an
endless war fought by ever more cunning and sophisticated robots, or  "Imposter" where a man accused of being an alien spy finds his whole
identity called into question. Using his marvellously varied, quirky
and idiosyncratic style, Dick speaks up for ordinary people against
militarism, paranoia and xenophobia.  Stories In This VolumeThe Cookie LadyBeyond the DoorSecond VarietyJon's WorldThe Cosmic PoachersProgenySome Kinds of LifeMartians Come in CloudsThe CommuterThe World She WantedA Surface RaidProject: EarthThe Trouble with BubblesBreakfast at TwilightA Present for PatThe Hood MakerOf Withered ApplesHuman IsAdjustment TeamThe Impossible PlanetImposterJames P.
