Abandoned for 170 days in a wrecked spaceship in the middle
of space, then ignored by a passing ship, Gully Foyle, the
anti-hero of TIGER! TIGER! fights his way determinedly back
to Earth - to seek revenge. Alfred Bester's foul but fascinating
creation, is perhaps, the most memorable character in the
whole of science fiction, and this tale of obsesson and
ultimate transcendence is acknowledged as one of the genre's
finest. When it was published in 1955, TIGER! TIGER! was
clearly years ahead of its time and science fiction's New
Wave, fifteen to twenty years later, hailed it as one of
the most influential books to have appeared from within
sf. As agelessly potent as a Jacobean tragedy and yet as
modern as microchip software, TIGER! TIGER! is an essential
and indispensable work in any science fiction collection.
