Collection of classic SF stories. Inscribed and dated by Bunch! (signing provenance included) No hardcover edition ever; no UK edition. ".Moderan (coll of linked stories 1971; exp 2018), is a series of short, narratively deranged, fable-like tales which describe in satirical terms (see Satire) a radically technologized future world where, after a nuclear Holocaust, humans have been transformed into Cyborgs, the surface of the Post-Holocaust world is plastic, and thought and action are both solipsistic and deeply melancholy. The book's portrait of a manufactured humanity works as an arraignment of the late-twentieth-century slide into speed-lined rootlessness, and demonstrates his heterodoxy in the world of sf." [JC] Encyclopedia of SF, 4th Ed. Internet. A potential cornerstone of a SF collection, and rare for both its condition and being signed! Inscribed by Author(s).
