Matter occupied so tiny a part of his vast awareness that humans were utterly beneath his notice. But even Wan-To could experience lonliness, ans so now and then he created new versions of himself for companionship." "From about 1959 until 1969, Pohl edited Galaxy and its sister magazine If; the latter won three successive annual Hugo Awards as the year's best professional magazine. His 1977 novel Gateway won four "year's best novel" awards: the Hugo voted by convention participants, the Locus voted by magazine subscribers, the Nebula voted by American science fiction writers, and the juried academic John W. Campbell Memorial Award. He won the Campbell Memorial Award again for the 1984 collection of novellas Years of the City, one of two repeat winners during the first forty years. For his 1979 novel Jem, Pohl won a U. S. National Book Award in the one-year category Science Fiction.". Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket .
