2001 Nights - Stories

Stories

The stories that make up the complete manga are placed in chronological order, with two exceptions. By the technology used, Night 14 ("Elliptical Orbit") seems to belong somewhere between Nights 6 and 7 (after the invention of suspended animation and interstellar travel, but before the Lucifer discovery). The second, Night 6 ("Discovery") is referenced in Night 4 ("Posterity") which occurs 50 years AFTER the launch of the probe Discovery.

Famous quotes containing the word stories:

    Fairy tales are loved by the child not because the imagery he finds in them conforms to what goes on within him, but because—despite all the angry, anxious thoughts in his mind to which the fairy tale gives body and specific content—these stories always result in a happy outcome, which the child cannot imagine on his own.
    Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)

    I found that they knew but little of the history of their race, and could be entertained by stories about their ancestors as readily as any way.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The affair between Margot Asquith and Margot Asquith will live as one of the prettiest love stories in all literature.
    Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
