Silverberg discovers his true powers, August 7, 2008
This review is from: Something Wild is Loose (Hardcover)
Subterranean Press is doing the SF community a huge favor by publishing Silverberg's self-selected and self-described collected stories. This book covers the period starting in the very late '60s, when Silverberg became personally entwined in the weirdness of the era. The stories in this volume show Silverberg reaching his full potential; they display his exquisite choice of subject matter, his impeccable style, and lancing wit as he investigates, savors, and skewers the cultural metamorphosis in which he was immersed. This and the next couple of volumes include Silverberg's very finest short work, which is among the absolute best that SF has to offer.
