Book Description
This volume collects two books of short stories by J.D. Beresford, which in turn collected most of his early speculative short stories. Some are allegories born of religious doubt, such as "A Negligible Experiment" (in Signs and Wonders), in which the impending destruction of Earth is taken as evidence that God has become indifferent to mankind; others are visionary fantasies, such as "The Cage", in which a man is telepathically linked to a prehistoric ancestor for a few seconds; and yet others are studies in abnormal Psychology - an interest which also inspired the non-sci-fi novel Peckove.
