Synopsis: From the front flap of the Putnam first edition: "In "The Big Flash," Norman Spinrad combines underground rock music and atomic warheads to create a nightmare vision of tomorrow. Kate Wilhelm's "Somerset Dreams" explores a fascinating new concept based on modern dream research, and in "Look, You Think You've Got Troubles," Carol Carr tells of a nice Jewish girl who marries a Martian.
Also included are stories by Avram Davidson, Ursula K. Le Guin, Langdon Jones, R.A. Lafferty, Gene Wolfe, C. Davis Belcher, Philip Latham, Kit Reed, and James Sallis.
These stories are not reprints from magazines - they are original science fiction stories appearing here for the first time anywhere in the world."
