The Ghost of a Model T and Other Stories
Clifford D. Simak
Tales of nostalgia and loss in a world overrun by technology
Hank is walking home from the bar when the Model T pulls alongside him.
It’s been decades since he saw a car this old, and the sound of it
takes him right back to his twenties. The door is open, and when he
climbs in, the car takes off—without a driver. Before he knows what’s
happened, Hank is right back at Big Spring Pavilion, where he spent his
youth drinking bootleg whiskey and chasing pretty girls. He will find
the past is not quite as he remembered it, but still a lovely place to
go for a drive.
This collection includes some of the finest
short fiction Clifford Simak ever wrote, including “City,” the story
that became the basis for his beloved novel of the same name. In the
history of science fiction, no author has ever better understood that
the Great Plains and the cosmos are closer together than we think.
Each story includes an introduction by David W. Wixon, literary
executor of the Clifford D. Simak estate and editor of this ebook
