The Last Mimzy is the ideal introduction to an author who was ahead of his time--and whose time has finally come
These seventeen classic stories create their own unique galaxy of vain, protective, and murderous robots; devilish angels; and warm and angry aliens. In "Mimsy Were the Borogoves"--the inspiration for New Line Cinema's major motion picture The Last Mimzy--a boy finds a discarded box containing a treasure trove of curious objects. When he and his sister begin to play with these trinkets--including a crystal cube that magnifies the unimaginable and a strange doll with removable organs that don't quite correspond to those of the human body--their parents grow concerned. And they should be. For the items are changing the way the children think and perceive the world around them--for better or worse.
