Immortality, Circa 1954

Spencer Holst

First published 1993
Type Short Fiction
Length Short Story

Author's note in The Zebra Storyteller: "History quickly overtook this story, and it was never published. Sputnik, the first object put into orbit, went up in 1957." He goes on to tell how he sent the story to Albert Einstein in 1954 but never received an answer (though he believes that Einstein paraphrased a quote from it in a newspaper quote a few weeks later).
