Librivox: Short Science Fiction Collection 030 by Various
Website: www.librivox.org
Science Fiction is speculative literature that generally explores the consequences of ideas which are roughly consistent with nature and scientific method, but are not facts of the author’s contemporary world. The stories often represent philosophical thought experiments presented in entertaining ways. Protagonists typically “think” rather than “shoot” their way out of problems, but the definition is flexible because there are no limits on an author’s imagination. The reader-selected stories presented here were written prior to 1962 and became US public domain texts when their copyrights expired. (Summary by Gregg Margarite) |

The Magic of Making Up is a powerful piece of literature. Not only does the book itself expose many of the reasons people have trouble in their relationships but it also gives step-by-step instructions on how to make things better. |

Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it. It enriches the necessary competencies that daily life requires and provides; and in this respect, it irrigates the deserts that our lives have already become. --C. S. Lewis |
