Overview: This is the anthology, preceding the USA Scribner’s publication by several months and revived by Jerry in 2019 – being a provocative collection of short works by several of science fiction’s best authors – selected, edited, and introduced by Christopher Priest.
Anticipations is a collection of stories, all new and most written especially for it, by some of the best science fiction writers of our day. Collected and introduced by Christopher Priest, himself one of science fiction’s major talents, the stories are as diverse and original as the writers themselves. From Robert Sheckley’s wry paranoia about voyeurism to Ian Watson’s metaphysical vision of an exceedingly slothful time machine, from J.G. Ballard’s haunting obsession with the artifacts of the Second World War to Brian W. Aldiss’s elegant philosophical discourse, the stories display a dazzling range of subject and style. Bob Shaw, Thomas M. Disch, Harry Harrison, and Christopher Priest are all at top form.
Each of these writers has a reputation and following of his own. Together they make for a brilliant and important collection, a must for anyone interested in science fiction.
