Henry Kuttner (1915-1958) was a central figure of the Golden Age of science fiction, known for his wide-ranging imagination and stylistic versatility. Publishing under his own name and various pseudonyms, and frequently collaborating with C. L. Moore, Kuttner produced influential work across science fiction, fantasy, and horror. His stories often combined inventive speculative concepts with psychological depth, helping to shape the development of modern genre fiction.
C. L. Moore (Catherine Lucille Moore, 1911-1987) was a pioneering American writer of science fiction and fantasy, and one of the first women to gain prominence in the pulp magazines of the 1930s. Her early stories, including those featuring Northwest Smith and Jirel of Joiry, were noted for their atmospheric intensity, emotional depth, and distinctive blending of science fiction with fantasy and horror elements.Moore frequently collaborated with her husband, Henry Kuttner, producing a body of work that became central to the Golden Age of science fiction. Writing under shared bylines and pseudonyms, their partnership yielded some of the era's most sophisticated and psychologically nuanced stories. Moore's influence can be seen in the evolution of character-driven speculative fiction, and her work remains an important bridge between early pulp traditions and later developments in the genre.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A sharp, imaginative exploration of identity, consciousness, and transformation from one of the Golden Age's most versatile voices. In The Ego Machine, Henry Kuttner brings his characteristic blend of psychological insight and speculative ingenuity to bear on questions of selfhood and technological intervention. The story unfolds around a device capable of altering personality and perception, raising unsettling possibilities about the stability of identity and the limits of human control.Kuttner-often writing alone or in collaboration with C. L. Moore-was a master of combining fast-moving narrative with deeper philosophical undercurrents. Here, the speculative premise becomes a vehicle for examining the fragility of the individual mind when subjected to external manipulation, anticipating later developments in science fiction concerned with consciousness, duplication, and artificial influence. The result is a compact yet resonant work that reflects the experimental energy of mid-twentieth-century genre fiction.This edition restores a notable example of Kuttner's shorter fiction, presented for modern readers with clarity and fidelity to its original form, and situated within the broader tradition of classic science fiction exploration.
