Wonder’s Child

It’s Jack Williamson’s 100th birthday today.

I quote his niece Betty: “In his honor, I suggest we all pause sometime today with a glass filled with the liquid of our choice (Jack would probably either have a gin and tonic or a tall buttermilk…) and drink a toast to Wonder’s Child. What an amazing century . . . “

For a literary appreciation of Jack’s journey, take a look at this article by John Clute.
