London: Jarrolds, 1932. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good. FIRST PUBLISHED IN APRIL, 1932. Light spine lean. Front hinges barely starting. Moderate scuffing and wear to boards. Corners bumped. A few white scuff marks to lower spine. Mild wear to edges with light nudge to front bottom edge of board. Light acid transfer to endpapers. Text lightly age-tanned. Gilt lettering is worn on spine of black, cloth-covered boards. Mylar protected. Clean, tight. 288 pp. First issue. A collection of ten short stories : Justice ; This Night ; Brain ; Appeal ; Proof ; P. N. 40 ; Automata ; The Rat ; Rule ; Choice. "The first seven are grouped together as glimpses of the future where the 'new gods' of twentieth-century man will take him. The best of these stories constitute what is perhaps the most vitriolic vision of the future ever produced ; they have an imaginative savagery of tone and content that is quite unparalleled. All of Wright's anxieties and preoccupations regarding the march of progress are here subjected to bitterly sarcastic extrapolation. All of the stories were fantastic, all of them save for one allegory belonging to the genre of 'scientific romance' whose principal exemplars were to be found among the early works of H. G. Wells," (Brian Stableford).
