Book description
Remember Charles Bronson stalking the streets of New York blowing holes
in muggers in Death Wish? Remember Glenn Ford standing off the vicious
juvenile delinquents in Blackboard Jungle? Well, it's more than fifty
years and two different worlds from 1955 to now. And something the
author of these stories knows, that you're scared to admit, is that
reality and fantasy have flip-flopped. They have switched places. The
stories that scare you today are the ones about rapists and thugs,
psychos who'll carve you for a dollar and hypes who'll bust your head to
get fixed. Glenn Ford's world was yesterday, and Bronson's is today. And
in the stalking midnight of this book, one of America's top writers,
Harlan Ellison, invades the shadows of both! Harlan Ellison is a
multiple Hugo and Nebula Award winning writer and editor. He wrote the
script for the hugely popular Star Trek episode, The City on the Edge of
Forever, the Nebula Award-winning novella, A Boy and his Dog, and many
acclaimed stories including 'Shatterday' and 'I Have No Mouth and I Must
Scream'. His groundbreaking anthology Dangerous Visions was instrumental
in defining the New Wave movement. Harlan Ellison lives in Los Angeles.
