The Year's Greatest Science Fiction & Fantasy 1 - [Anthology] - Plot & Excerpts

There’d be conquerors and colonists and missionaries and (by the millions, sooner or later) tourists.
      Mrs. Clingerman suggests that extra-terrestrial visitors on Earth might also have mixed motives . . .
      * * * *   Everybody has his own way of weathering a hangover. Maggie’s husband’s way was to ignore the whole matter, stoutly denying, if pressed, that he suffered at all. Maggie never denied Mark the right to this brave pretense, but she had long ago rioted that on such days the family car needed a great deal of tinkering with, which necessitated Mark’s lying down under it or in it for several hours. Maggie refused any such face-saving measures. Right after breakfast on the day after the party she took to her bed, fortified with massive doses of B1, a dull book and, for quiet companionship, Gomez, the cat.
      The window cooler hummed invitingly in the darkened bedroom; the curtains belled out in the breeze, and Maggie, shedding everything but her slip, climbed gratefully into bed.
