Guilt is in the eye of the beholder in this futuristic crime story
from the Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author of Lord Valentine’s
Castle. A lot of women were wearing Marianne’s face that season,
which made it hard for Loren Frazier to forget that he killed his
world-famous wife’s lover. The world wouldn’t forget it either;
the image of his murderous impulse was caught forever in his
victim’s brain—an eyeflash picture readily recovered by law
enforcement. But a man of Frazier’s money and power has
options: aliases, overseas accounts, the ability to change his
appearance. Heartbreak and regret are his constant companions through
the continents and the years—until he can truly see what he has
become . . . Praise for Robert Silverberg and his short
stories “When Silverberg is at the top of his form, no one is
better.” —George R. R. Martin, #1 New York Times–bestselling
author “Silverberg’s creative story premises are matched by a
remarkable ability to make his characters sympathetic, whether human
or not.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “The short
stories in Robert Silverberg’s First-Person Singularities are
inventive, sublime, and endlessly entertaining.” —Foreword Reviews
“Decades after being originally published, most of these stories
are still just as entertaining and powerful as they were when first
released. A singularly unique collection.” —Kirkus Reviews
