Steve, could be they considered Martian Chronicles as stories ...maybe same with I Robot...2001 was a novelization based on a short story - The Sentential ..

I actually think Dahlgren may be my favorite above Foundation Trilogy....
The two are so different though I'll just call it a tie.
Wow....I haven't thought of Delany in forever. And he was one of my favorite writers every. I know Nova, Triton, Dhalgren and Empire Star were among the most interesting stories I read as a teen. He might just be one of those very underrated authors of his era for whatever reason.

Love this place simply because it makes me remember authors long ago forgotten or neglected.
