Star, Bright Produced from Galaxy Science Fiction July 1952 Produced by Greg Weeks, Mary Meehan and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Star, Bright" by Mark Clifton is a science fiction novel written in the early 1950s. The book explores the fascinating themes of exceptional intelligence and telepathy through the story of a young girl named Star, who possesses extraordinary cognitive abilities far beyond that of a typical child. The narrative delves into her father's struggles to understand and support her, while navigating the challenges posed by her high intelligence and unique gifts. The story follows Pete Holmes as he grapples with the reality that his daughter, Star, is not an ordinary child; she exhibits advanced intelligence and telepathic abilities. As Star, who is joined by her friend Robert, learns to navigate both the joys and trials of her intellect, they embark on imaginative adventures that blur the line between time and space. The children create a method of teleportation through the exploration of abstract concepts like the Moebius strip, eventually leading to wild escapades that challenge their understanding of history and existence. As Pete attempts to keep his daughter safe while recognizing her exceptional nature, the novel questions the societal norms surrounding intelligence and the nature of reality itself.
