Ganymede House

by Donald A. Wollheim (writing as David Grinnell)

About this book

A New Yorker who enjoys browsing the city’s foreign shops discovers an unfamiliar establishment called Ganymede House. Its displays seem to belong to another of the international pavilions he likes to visit, and an inexpensive household purchase looks like an ideal souvenir.

Donald A. Wollheim, writing as David Grinnell, lets an ordinary shopping excursion drift into an encounter with something far less ordinary. The complete September 1953 story retains its original illustration by Rudolph Belarski and its understated comic conclusion.
