4.0 out of 5 stars
Solid collection -- with 1 all-time CLASSIC!
This is as solid as NE Tiptree collection, but worth it all 4 "A Momentary Taste of Being," 1 of THE most devastating SF stories U'll ever read. Impossible 2 Dscribe, it takes 70 pages, but U'll B knocked out. Should've won an award, Cms 2 B completely overlooked, even by Tiptree's fans -- would make a great movie: the enormity & the Dspair, as U discover...

Some good stories
Some really good stories and some rather confusing stories. If you're a James Tiptree, Jr. fan, of course, you must read.

This review is from: Star Songs of an Old Primate (Mass Market Paperback)
This is as solid as NE Tiptree collection, but worth it all 4 "A Momentary Taste of Being," 1 of THE most devastating SF stories U'll ever read. Impossible 2 Dscribe, it takes 70 pages, but U'll B knocked out. Should've won an award, Cms 2 B completely overlooked, even by Tiptree's fans -- would make a great movie: the enormity & the Dspair, as U discover what Man's Ultimate Goal really is. Vivid, riveting, totally involving. A tough read, but what an impact! "Her Smoke Rose Up Forever" is pretty powerful, 2. Tiptree's suicide was a big loss 2 the SF field. I also recommend her novel BRIGHTNESS FALLS FROM THE AIR, & many of the stories in her earlier collection, WARM WORLDS AND OTHERWISE.
