''The General Zapped an Angel'' is a collection of nine science fiction and fantasy stories written by Howard Fast, published by William Morrow and Company in 1970. A paperback edition from Ace Books followed later that year, as did an Italian translation. The Ace paperback was reissued in 1978.〔(ISFDB Bibliography )〕 The contents of this collection were incorporated into Fast's 1975 omnibus, ''Time and the Riddle''. Fast described the stories as "about the general childishness of man, the only form of life that refuses to grow up."〔()〕 James Blish gave the collection an unfavorable review, saying the stories "are all too obvious parables, with all too obvious morals."〔"Books", ''F&SF'', September 1970, p. 18-9〕 Kirkus Reviews, however, gave ''General'' a brief four-star review, singling out the title story for praise.〔(Kirkus Reviews )〕 The second episode of the 2007 TV series ''Masters of Science Fiction'', "The Awakening", was adapted from the title story of this book. ==Contents== # "The General Zapped an Angel" # "The Mouse" # "The Vision of Milty Boil" # "The Mohawk" # "The Wound" # "Tomorrow's Wall Street Journal" # "The Interval" # "The Movie House" # "The Insects" All stories were original to the collection except "The Mouse", which first appeared in ''F&SF'' in November 1969.〔(ISFDB bibliography )〕〔(Index to Science Fiction Anthologies and Collections )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The General Zapped an Angel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
