Here Comes Civilization
This book is the second part of a two-book project that has brought all of the science fiction and fantasy of William Tenn back into print. The first volume is Immodest Proposals. A volume of his non-fiction, Dancing Naked, was published in September 2004.
Here Comes Civilization contains the novel Of Men and Monsters and all of the short science fiction that was not included in the companion to this volume, Immodest Proposals. It has such classic stories as "Bernie the Faust," "The Malted Milk Monster," and "The Discovery of Morniel Mathaway." Also included are several stories that have not been reprinted since their initial magazine publications, as well as the short novel A Lamp for Medusa.
Tenn has long been considered one of the significant satirists in the field. The Science Fiction Encyclopedia calls him "one of the genre's very few genuinely comic, genuinely incisive writers of short fiction."
