This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. In a future of extreme overpopulation, Flora yearns to escape the tiny, windowless apartment she shares with her husband Harry. When Harry installs virtual reality walls to distract her from the claustrophobia, Flora embraces the illusory landscapes—until Harry adds more screens that leave her feeling more trapped than ever. On the brink of a nervous breakdown as the walls close in, Flora makes a desperate plea for help from her increasingly indifferent husband in this chilling vision of technology gone too far.

A Bad Day for Vermin: They came In friendship and love. They couldn't help the way they looked!
Judge Carter Gates of the Third Circuit Court finished his chicken salad on whole wheat, thoughtfully crumpled the waxed paper bag and turned to drop it in the waste basket behind his chair—and sat transfixed. Through his second-floor office window, he saw a forty-foot flower-petal shape of pale turquoise settling gently between the well-tended petunia beds on the courthouse lawn. On the upper, or stem end of the vessel, a translucent pink panel popped up and a slender, graceful form not unlike a large violet caterpillar undulated into view. Judge Gates whirled to the telephone. Half an hour later, he put it to the officials gathered with him in a tight group on the lawn. 'Boys, this thing is intelligent; any fool can see that. It's putting together what my boy assures me is some kind of talking machine, and any minute now it's going to start communicating. It's been twenty minutes since I notified Washington on this thing. It won't be long before somebody back there decides this is top secret and slaps a freeze on us here that will make the Manhattan Project look like a publicity campaign. Now, I say this is the biggest thing that ever happened to Plum County—but if we don't aim to be put right out of the picture, we'd better move fast.' And so the sleepy little town in the midwest USA prepared to welcome the first delegation from space. But it did look like a very large caterpillar..... and that might be a problem for some people,

Murray Leinster: A Matter of Importance: what is the difference between a riot and a war? It's all
The importance of a matter is almost entirely a matter of your attitude. And whether you call something 'a riot' or 'a war' ... well, there is a difference, but what is it? Someone steals a space ship? The local police know how to handle that. A broken down freighter in a far distant solar system? That's their normal job too. A bunch of idiots want to start a war? Just another days' work for the boys in blue. The twisted mind of Murray Leinster takes on an Earth empire of thousands of planets and that has moved beyond armies or navies. No need for 'em any more when you have an experienced police force, eh? They've seen it all and everything is routine to the guys and gals of the Empire Police. -
