Author

Title / Publisher / Library / Abstract

Porges, Arthur

An author whose literary creations have dazzled readers for five decades now. An accomplished mystery and science fiction writer, Arthur Porges (1915 - ) has specialized in the short-short story form throughout his varied career. A regular contributor to the science fiction magazines of the fifties & sixties, his best known story is probably The Ruum, a much reprinted tale with a style that typifies the majority of his unusual work. And what stories! Dusty Answer, Dr. Blackadder's Clients, A Specimen for the Queen, Priceless Possession, Aunt Rutabaga, Movie Show, A Touch of Sun, A Puzzle in Sand, The Dragons of Tesla, By A Fluke,......and many, many more.
