Un Anillo Alrededor del Sol / Ring Around the Sun (Spanish Edition) Review"Nebulae" is an old and prestigious sci-fi collection, with at least three re-launchings, that made available to Spanish speaking public many genre classic as Heinlein's "The Puppet Masters", Wyndham's "The Chrysalides" or Sturgeon's "Caviar". The editorial house EDHASA has launched around a dozen of different science-fiction collections.
Clifford D. Simak (1904-1988) wrote a masterpiece, "City" (1952) rewarded with International Fantasy Award, two remarkable sci-fi novels "Way Station" (1963) Hugo Award winner and "Highway of Eternity" (1986) and many good short stories and novels.
"Ring Around the Sun" (1953) was published immediately after his great success "City", the author was in great shape as touched by the Muses. Many of the Simak's major themes are used in this book: mutants, escaping from Earth and parallel universes.
The story starts when a novelist is summoned by his literary agent to meet a Big Business man. While he is on his way he notices a series of strange events: indestructible cars, eternal lamps and impossibly cheap houses are being offered to the public.
The Big Shot confirms him that businesses are on the verge of collapse and tries to recruit Jay to write a book describing this menace. He refuses and goes back to his small town. There a lot of strange circumstances force him to flee. Meanwhile the public starts a frenzied mutant's persecution and Jay is identified as one of them.
From here on, Jay will disclose one mystery after other until the end.
The author deal with the innumerable problems that everlasting products may produce: economical, political and social.
How humanity handle this situation constitutes the core plot of the novel.
The only low point of the novel, IMHO, is the somehow little elaborated ending.
Still I recommend this book to sci-fi lovers. It is a very interesting stuff!
