Is it worth reading? :)
That story rules, as does the collection it's in (Frost and Fire).
I’ll have to find that, rather I used IA to find the back issue of the magazine it was published in.
Inspired by this thread, I just reread it. There's a reproduction with the original woodblock print images, which was useful because I didn't have that when I read this story as a teenager.

Internet archive is your friend here. Yes very much so, especially if you can get the book Zelazny based the story on.
Damn! That's super cool. I have shown the wave to my kids but I often tell them that artists are not always what we know of them. This is a superb demonstration ! Thanks for posting ! (usually I'd use l' "origine du monde" by Courbet)
This painting was prominently featured in several episodes of "Mad Men".
