Four for Tomorrow, a 1967 Ace paperback (Ace M‑155) is Zelazny's first published collection, establishing him as a major stylist in the New Wave era. It's his first story collection and showcases the mix of mythic tone, stylistic flourish, and philosophical speculation that defined his mid‑1960s work. Zelazny uses each story to explore a different facet of human aspiration—immortality, transcendence, alien contact, and the limits of artistic or spiritual expression. The pieces share the era's blend of poetic prose and conceptual ambition. "The Furies" — A meditation on vengeance and responsibility, following a man who returns to confront the consequences of a past betrayal. Zelazny blends mythic overtones with a science‑fictional setting to question whether justice or forgiveness is possible in a technologically advanced future. "The Graveyard Heart" — A tale of decadence and immortality among a social elite who periodically enter suspended animation to preserve their youth and power. The protagonist's attempt to break free of this cycle becomes a critique of emotional detachment and the cost of privilege. "The Doors of His Face, the Lamps of His Mouth" — A celebrated adventure story about a dangerous alien sea‑creature hunt on Venus. Beneath the action is a character study of pride, rivalry, and the desire to reclaim lost glory. "A Rose for Ecclesiastes" — One of Zelazny's most acclaimed works, following a gifted poet‑linguist who becomes entangled in Martian ritual and prophecy. Themes include artistic arrogance, cultural misunderstanding, and the possibility of redemption through creation. Paperback edition. Published by ACE Books, New York. 1st printing, 1967. Multi-Color binding. 0.5 Pound Media Shipping Rate with Multiple Product Orders. (Min Shipping Rate 1 Pound per Order). Order More and SAVE!
