New English Library, London, 1976. First Thus, Softcover. Very Good Condition. 9780450029998 Introduction by Harry Harrison. The Caltraps of Time is a 1968 collection of short stories by David I. Masson. In the vein of early 20th century science fiction, despite being published in the midst of the New Wave movement, the stories use familiar tropes to tell experimental tales. Well written, there are points of originality poking through now and again, no common theme connecting the stories. The collection is essentially a one-off, Masson would go on to publish only three additional short stories in his lifetime. This is the first N.E.L. edition.
