5.0 out of 5 stars A spell binding journey to rural Wisconsin and worlds beyond, Aug 23 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: All Flesh Is Grass (Paperback)
A classic Clifford D. Simak, small town middle America is the back drop to an other worldly tale of unparalleled originality. A griping read that thrusts you into the action right from the very first paragraph. Simak has a unique ability to have you turning the pages all night without ever loosing the relaxed atmosphere only he can create. This is a first contact story like no other, no other writer has created so alien aliens which at the same time are so familiar. But the real triumph of this book is the manner in which Simak is able to bring all the characters of small town America to life in such a believable manner. Like many of Simak's books the story is the story of a beginning and leaves you crying out for more and with many questions. This among other things make this book live on long in your imagination. A treat not to be missed.

4.0 out of 5 stars The strange emerges from the familiar, Nov 12 1997
By Patrick J. Callahan (La Crosse, WI USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: All Flesh Is Grass (Paperback)
This isn't a bad book, but the ending for me was very unsatisfactory. It's as though the author just stopped writing. Little is resolved. On the whole, though, the book is rich and beautifully written. Again, Simak takes American small town life and fills it with strangeness and wonder. Originality is so apparent-- in so many ways. For instance, who could imagine that some flowers growing by the roadside, transplanted into the garden by an old man, become a window to communicate with the stars? Read it, you'll enjoy it. And you may wish, like me, that it had a better ending.

5.0 out of 5 stars A study in excellence!, Sep 4 1997
This review is from: All Flesh Is Grass (Paperback)
Thre IS no author, alive, or dead that can sufficiently portray the otherworldliness of almost ANY SIMAK book; He is a genius of the alternate universe, with absolutely no peers whatsoever!
