Yeeesss!! Bookpilled LOVES Lafferty's The Reefs of Earth! #ralafferty https://t.co/4x6IoBeNOc

[Benjamin I. Espen 🏛 @BenEspen]

@BrainLeakage03 Past Master by R. A. Lafferty should be a strong contender, since Lafferty chose to re-connect dystopias with their roots in Thomas More's Utopia, which is in fact arguably dystopian.

I wonder what R.A Lafferty was like in person, only pictures i've seen of him are as a kooky old man with a wry smile. I imagine Oklahoma produces interesting, and funny people.

En general, las historias de viajes en el tiempo son bastantes pedorras y tienen más fisuras argumentales que las justificaciones del crecimiento económico
del país pero si querés "el cuento definitivo" sobre este tópico tenés que leer este 👇 de R.A Lafferty.

@TannerFBoyle1 Harlan got around, I’m still bummed Eerie Indiana got cancelled before running the episode he made out of an RA Lafferty short story

[Every Hugo Ever @EveryHugoEver]

"Eurema's Dam" by R.A. Lafferty follows a strange-thinking man as he invents his way through life, and the story itself ponders the origins and purpose of invention.

Lafferty will never be other than obscure. He picked that niche himself.
