pluralstories"He... I don't know how to say this either. He wore his face differently. The MacDonald he loosened into was changed, somehow older."
Blurb: A crew of free-rolling barflies assist a young telepathic man in trying to contact his comatose brother in the mental ward.
Why is it worth your time?: Spider Robinson at his compassionate, bad-puns best; he has a thing about group telepathy that reads very powerfully even after fifty years. Plus it's short.
Plural Tags: abuse low focus, cofronting, family relationships (brothers), setting-specific
Content Warnings: contain spoilers; see comments
Access Notes: You can find this story in the omnibuses Callahan's Crosstime Saloon, Callahan and Company, and Callahan Chronicals [sic]. It was also in Analog magazine from May 1975. I know at least ONE of those has been digitized and been screenreadable, Callahan Chronicals I think, which is also available in audiobook. Available in the French collection Le bar du coin des temps, the German collection Die Zeitreisenden in "Callahan's Saloon" and the Italian collection I crocevia del tempo.
Misc Notes: Part of a series, but can be read stand-alone no problem; the early Callahan stories were episodic on purpose, since they were being serialized in magazines.
