1975 Nebula Award Winner
1976 Hugo Award Winner
1982 Hugo Award Winner
1984 Locus Award Winner
Two of the stories in this volume are award winners. Home is the Hangman won both the 1975 Nebula Award and the 1976 Hugo Award for Best Novella. Unicorn Variation won the 1982 Hugo Award for Best Novelette.I rather enjoyed the stories in this book. Some, of course, more than others. It has a good range of content with different subjects and moods, so it didn't seem like I was reading the same story over and over. A nice touch was the fact that the author had written a short introduction for the entire volume and for each individual work. He also included two essays The Parts That Are Only Glimpsed: Three Reflexes, and Some Science Fiction Parameters: A Biased View.
