Reactions and Reviews
'Survival': this and the story immediately following it, 'Nothing to Fear But Fear Itself' best demonstrate the general lack of editorial practice. The first is a one-pager that would have been hilarious with one hint of the denouement added earlier and the last three paragraphs cut. It parodies 'struggle stories' that begin exactly like the second one. With their positions as additional set up for the funny one. As it stands, the serious story does not get the respect if needs because the reader is on guard from the sudden switch to humor in the preceding story. [1]
