5.0 out of 5 stars It changed my life, April 1, 2002

This review is from: Can You Feel Anything When I Do This? (Hardcover)
A fine collection of short stories from Sheckley. My personal favorites are the title piece (a musing on sentience), the amazing "Pas de Trois of the Waiter, the Chef, and the Customer" - a little story told in Rashomon-like fashion, where three characters experience the same events radically differently - and "Cordle to Onion to Carrot", which persuaded me that people can truly reinvent themselves. Although I'm a longtime fan of Sheckley, I believe that nonfans and even non-science fiction fans would love this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good read for anybody, November 5, 2001
This review is from: Can You Feel Anything When I Do This? (Hardcover)
I thought this book was completely entertaining. I was amazed at the way that Sheckley was able to give my mind a good working over with mere words. Truly he is the master at science fiction. I am a huge fan of any work that he has done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly thought provoking, August 13, 2001
By 
tj (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Can You Feel Anything When I Do This? (Hardcover)
This collection of Robert Sheckley's short stories is for a lack of a better word, great. All the stories make you think about how you view the world. Plus, you get a moral out of most of them as well! A little parable for the SF adult! Once again the master of satire has made my day; maybe he can make yours! This book is out of print, but you can find it used online easily, and it is well worth it.

Over and out, TJ
