Adam and No Eve by Alfred Bester - The last living man on a world rendered utterly lifeless by all–consuming fire– how could he start life alone?
Alfred Bester (1913–1987) was an American science fiction writer, screenwriter, and editor, best known for his groundbreaking novels The Demolished Man (1953) and The Stars My Destination (1956). Born in New York City, Bester studied at the University of Pennsylvania and later worked as a writer for comics, radio, and television before making his mark in science fiction.
His career took off in the 1940s with short stories published in Astounding Science Fiction and Galaxy Science Fiction. His writing was innovative, blending psychological depth, linguistic playfulness, and a breakneck narrative style. In 1953, The Demolished Man, a futuristic crime novel featuring telepathic detectives, won the first-ever Hugo Award for Best Novel. The Stars My Destination, a revenge-fueled space odyssey inspired by The Count of Monte Cristo, became a cult classic, often cited as a precursor to cyberpunk.
Bester’s work influenced writers like Philip K. Dick, William Gibson, and Roger Zelazny. His use of non-linear storytelling, inner monologues, and typography experimentation set him apart. Though he published sporadically after the 1950s, he remained a key figure in the genre.
