One Was Stubborn
Paperback 

Welcome to the future, where everything's perfect—perfectly automated.


Machines take care of it all . . . except, of course, ailments of the soul: the worst of which is the stark, unadulterated and complete sickness called boredom.


Boredom is the thing that an old man—possibly the most stubborn fellow left in the universe—resists. After a figure dubbed the "Messiah" claims the world exists only by mutal agreement and calls for its end, objects start to disappear. At first, the old man thinks he needs new glasses. But when he visits his doctor, he starts to uncover the key to a startling adventure into the unknown and beyond.


ALSO INCLUDES THE SCIENCE FICTION STORIES "A CAN OF VACUUM" AND "240,000 MILES STRAIGHT UP"

Book Quote:

One Was Stubborn

I was so groggy when I stepped off the conveyer belt and grabbed the scoop which lifted up to the medical department level that I didn't even see a crazy college student swing off Level 20 in his antique Airable Swishabout-one of those things with signs over the dents saying, "Eve, Here's Your Atom," and "Ten Tubes All Disintegrating," and "Hey, Babe, didn't we meet on Mars?" You know the menace.
