Struggling to read this. There are some clever ideas, but many of the stories have aged like milk since its publication 50 years ago. The author uses queerness as a “shock factor” to the audience in one of the stories. Overall has outdated ideas about race and gender.

Some of the stories are good, some others (two, in fact) I quit reading after a couple of pages of mumbo-jumbo.

These short stories were created by a strange, twisted but entertaining imagination...
