Hardcover without dust jacket. Signed on title page. Clarke is perhaps best known for 2001: A Space Odyssey. In 1964, the popular science fiction writer had been approached by director Stanley Kubrick, who wanted to make the proverbial good science fiction movie. Clark simultaneously wrote his novel, which spanned man’s exploration of his universe from the savannahs of Africa to the rings of Saturn, as Kubrick was creating the film. Both debuted in 1968. Besides his sequels to 2001, including this volume, Clarke has produced some of SF’s most celebrated novels, including Childhood’s End and Rendezvous with Rama, thought-provoking short stories like “The Nine Billion Names of God, ” and many essays. Born in 1917 and resident in Sri Lanka since 1946, Clarke has won two Hugo and one Nebula award, and shared an Oscar with Kubrick in 1968.
