Il problema — o la speranza — della telepatia ha suggerito agli scopritori di f.s. migliaia di pagine, quasi tutte di una scoraggiante ingenuit?; abbiamo quindi pensato di ripubblicare qui il famoso romanzo di Bester, vero e proprio « classico » sull’argomento, gi? apparso anni fa, a puntate, su altro periodico Mondadori, e che pensiamo sia sfuggito,alla maggior parte dei lettori di Urania. E un’opera di eccezionale ingegnosit?, dove la trasmissione del pensiero diventa l’arma di un duello mortale tra un assassino e un detective insoliti.

The Stars My Destination (originally called Tiger! Tiger!, from William Blake's poem "The Tyger") is a science fiction novel by Alfred Bester, first published in Galaxy magazine as a 4-part serial, beginning in the October 1956 issue. The Stars My Destination is, in one sense, a science-fiction adaption of Alexandre Dumas' The Count of Monte Cristo. It is the study of a man completely lacking in imagination or ambition, Gulliver Foyle. Fate transforms "Gully" Foyle in an instant; shipwrecked in space, then abandoned by a passing luxury liner, Foyle becomes a monomaniacal and sophisticated monster bent upon revenge. Wearing many masks, learning many skills, this "worthless" man pursues his goals relentlessly; no price is too high to pay.
