Timey-wimey wonder and moral resonance collide in a collection that timelessly speaks to readers of science fiction and classic literature alike. Alarm Clock gathers Everett B. Cole's late nineteenth century visions into a compact, spellbinding short story collection that brims with public domain fiction's ingenuity. These tales turn on time, machines and the fragility of humanity, weaving moral dilemmas into pulse-quickening plots that reward both casual readers and serious collectors of classic fiction. You'll meet recognisable concerns of anglo american literature and the pulp era sensibilities, where modern anxieties about technology and progress are placed under a humane, contemplative microscope. This is not merely a reprint, but a careful restoration that treats the past as a cultural treasure for today's readers and for future generations. Prince of the clockwork imagination, the collection stands as a marker of literary history, illuminating how time and clocks themes shaped speculative fiction long before cinema and modern media. It rewards patient immersion with sly wit, sober wonder and a sense of ringed inevitability that lingers long after the last page. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A book for science fiction fans and classic fiction readers alike.
