Partly rewritten and incorporated as part —the chapters 1 to 18— of the novel To Your Scattered Bodies Go.
Nominated for the Hugo Award (1966).
DESCRIPTION:
One morning the dead of Earth awoke with a great cry.
They were on the banks of a river of a planet somewhere in a star swarm. They were naked and in an interminable valley which offered no food—at first. The old had rejuvenated, so that an eighty-year-old, for instance, again had his twenty-five-year-old body. The diseased were healthy; the crippled walked straight; the misshapen were reshaped. Moreover, all men had awakened circumcised and were permanently without facial hair. All women were virgins again but forever sterile.
Worlds of Tomorrow: They were reborn on a fairer planet — to a new life, and a puzzle that shook the worlds!
