The Coffin Cure — Alan E. Nourse Story A bleak medical future where burial becomes therapy. The “coffin cure” is a sanctioned psychological treatment—patients sealed away to shock them back into compliance. Nourse uses clinical calm to expose how medicine, stripped of empathy, can become ritualized cruelty dressed up as care. First appearance Published in April 1957 issue of Galaxy magazine. Author bio Alan E. Nourse (1928–1992) was both a physician and science-fiction writer. His fiction obsessively interrogates medicine, ethics, and institutional power, often predicting bioethical debates decades early with unsettling clarity and professional precision. Death Wish — Robert Sheckley Story A man casually wishes for death—and gets exactly what he asked for, via a perfectly legal, perfectly absurd system.

William Hope Hodgson’s The Night Land (1912) is a staggering piece of early weird fiction — an immense, apocalyptic vision set millions of years in the future, after the sun has died. Humanity survives in the Last Redoubt, a titanic metal pyramid lit by internal power, surrounded by eternal darkness and monstrous forces that hunger for the light within. The protagonist, a telepathic man of that far-future world, senses the spirit of his long-dead love calling from another human fortress — the Lesser Redoubt — now besieged in the black wilderness. Driven by love and duty, he ventures into the Night Land: a desolate, monster-haunted plain where the Earth’s surface is stalked by “Watchers,” “Silent Ones,” and colossal horrors that defy comprehension. It’s equal parts cosmic horror, doomed romance, and proto-science-fantasy. Hodgson’s prose is archaic, deliberately medieval in tone, which makes the book feel like an illuminated manuscript describing a dream of the end of time. Modern readers often find it dense,
