Arthur C. Clarke

Last night I caught the tail end of an NPR bit, referring to Clarke in the past tense. Not surprising, given his advanced age, but sad nonetheless.

I read “The Star” when I was a kid; it was included in one of the anthologies my mom owned. It’s not Clarke’s best known work, but it’s the one I always think of first when I think of him—or, for that matter, the science fiction field.

    Actually that does seem to be the first one most people read. Or at least I did.
