Contents and Descriptions:
This issue of Censored (Vol. 1, No. 2), published by Fred Hurter Jr. at St. Andrew's College, Aurora, Ontario, comprises five main pieces of fiction and several essays/departments. The centerpiece is "Luna and Lunacy," a full-length humorous science-fiction novel by editor Hurter Jr., narrating a drunken journey to the Moon, which turns out to be made of Limburger cheese. After a car crash landing, the protagonist encounters green-skinned inhabitants, meets a beautiful hybrid woman, and visits her mad-scientist father's laboratory before an explosion sends him back to Earth as a dismissible lunatic.
The guest editorial by Tremblin Ormaine celebrates sunrise in Northern Ontario and plugs Meteor magazine. Additional content includes "The Moth," a book-length novel by Leslie Crouch (OCR corrupted), the poem "Evolution?" by Barbara Bovard, Damon Knight's sonnet "Swamp Country," and various essays and miscellaneous departments on science fiction topics and criticism.
