Body Parts, Arthur Herzog

Mary Woodbury

July 11, 2014

From imagination to materialism, the provocative stories in “Body Parts” cover the bases. Can brains survive without bodies? 

From Arthur Herzog’s widow Leslie:

Every time Arthur’s books were in galleys, he would write a short story and then throw it in a box, which I found in the attic. I made him go through them, and he pulled out all the ones that had a “Body Part” as the subject. Hence the book of short stories, “Body Parts.” I always loved the one called “Loose Tongue”. Then he put together the ones for “Beyond Sci Fi”, and I have not had the time to publish “Near the Edge”.

“The Voice” from “Body Parts” was made into a movie, but the producer died, and although I have a copy, I have not done anything with it yet. Arthur wrote every day of the year, from 8 am to noon when he broke for soup and a sandwich, then from 1 pm to 6 pm. He would drag his electric typewriter around world wide so he could work every day.
