Clifford Simak is one of the founding fathers of modern fiction, the giant writers who created the concept of the "golden age of SF" in American literature. At the beginning of his literary career, Saimak wrote "hard" science fiction and adventure works, as well as westerns, but then pushed the boundaries of the SF genre and created his own style, which critics called soft, humanistic and even pastoral, comparing Saimak's prose with Bradbury's prose. His novel in the short stories "The City" brought him worldwide fame (the title novel is included in this collection). In fifty-five years, Saimak has written about thirty novels and more than one hundred and twenty novellas and short stories. He was awarded the Hugo, Nebula, Locus and other awards. He was awarded the title of "Grand Master of the Nebula Award". Read more…
