gunshotwound Not being big on sci-fi I must confess never having heard of the gent BUT that snippet of IT was gripping ! I want to read more ! Sturgeon linkThis piece of trivia seems especially "cool" ! Coined the famed phrase "Live long and prosper" in the premiere episode of the second season of Star Trek (1966), "Amok Time" (according to an interview with Leonard Nimoy
In 1969 a friend of mine gave me a hardback copy of one of those Hitchcock compilations titled Stories That Scared Even Me. Sturgeon's novella was included and I fell in love with it. It is not really sci-fi, more horror than anything else. The book also contained some other great horror stores. Two of them A Death in the Family and Camera Obscura where made into Night Gallery episodes. Check E-bay and you might find a copy of the book.
