Beverly Hills, Level 14
Subtitle: "Or the Great Gavage".
Nominated for the Nebula Award (1968).
Winner of the Hugo Award for Best Novella (1968).
Locus Online 20th Century Poll (2012) - novella: 29th.
An extract of this novella has been published as "Sexual Implications of the Charge of the Light Brigade".
See also "Brass and Gold".
DESCRIPTION:
Harlan Ellison in his introduction: «...this is not merely the longest story in the book—something over 30,000 words—it is easily the best. No, make that the finest. It is a jewel of such brilliance that re-examination and rereading will reveal facet after facet, ramification after ramification, joy after delight that were only partially glimpsed first time around. The explanation of the bases of this story is fully detailed in Phil Farmer's excellent Afterword, and to attempt an original and pithy comment about what he is saying here would be ludicrous. The man speaks for himself more than well enough...»
