The Collected Short Stories of William Tenn : Of All Possible Worlds, Project Hush, Ricardo's Virus and Venus is a Man's World

The Collected Short Stories of William Tenn brings together four sharp, imaginative works from one of science fiction’s most intelligent and underappreciated voices. Featuring Of All Possible Worlds, Project Hush, Ricardo’s Virus, and Venus Is a Man’s World, this collection showcases Tenn’s trademark blend of speculative ideas, social satire, and psychological insight. These stories explore alternate realities, alien cultures, technological control, and the absurdities of human behavior—often with dark humor and biting irony. Tenn’s science fiction is less about gadgets and more about people, asking unsettling questions about power, conformity, gender, and survival. Thought-provoking, clever, and often surprisingly funny, this volume is ideal for readers who enjoy classic, idea-driven science fiction with a strong philosophical edge. A must-read collection for fans of mid-century speculative fiction and socially conscious sci-fi storytelling.
