The set "Anthology of science fiction. The best. Ext. 1 "contains books:" The story of a luxurious and alluring plain "The publication continues to acquaint readers with the literary heritage of William Morris. The great writer drew inspiration in the history of Britain and the old European epic. "The story of a luxurious and alluring plain" and "Forest outside the world" is brilliant stylizations, resembling classic British and German sagas and the best examples of a medieval novel. At the same time, the unique texts of Morris are considered the first large works in the fantasy genre. The works are first published in the brilliant translation of Yuri Sokolov. "Separated man" The last novel of the great science fiction and futurologist Olaf Stapledon, the most famous in the first in the world literature of the large -scale "history of the future". A novel, which reflects the latest searches of a genius, a novel that became his creative testament. The history of the split personality, the place and the time of action is England between the world wars. People cease to recognize Victor Smith, who was considered an empty snob and dandy. Suddenly, he becomes his exact opposite: inquisitive and pleasant young men who hurries to breathe full breasts, to know the taste of struggle and true love. The most important question that is studied by the "New" Victor is the purpose of mankind in the universe. Only one of the close friends of the protagonist begins to understand that what is happening is explained by cosmic intervention. A unique monument of literature of magical realism, which anticipated the "planet Ka-Pax" Gina Bruera and the trilogy of Philip Dick "Valis"! "From death to life" Roman, logically finishing "history of the future" according to Olaf Stapledon, begun the epic "last and first people" and continued by the "creator of stars". The novel is the quintessence of the cosmogony and eschatology of the great science fiction and futurologist. Each thinking race, inhabiting endless cosmos, has its own guardian spirit, which passes the same cycles of life as the people "subordinate". Before us is a large -scale picture of the wandering of the cosmic patron of mankind on the Earth and the solar system mastered by people, the history of observations of the rise and falls of empires, the diary of fears and hopes associated with our reasonable appearance. Will the owners of the Third Planet will adequately manifest themselves within their galaxy or disappoint the creators of the stars? Who will direct the descendants of Adam to the path of genuine immortality?
