This is one of my favorite short stories from R.A. Lafferty. I have several of his collections that are currently out of print and I`m glad this short is out in the e-world.
This story is basically about a man who wakes up one morning and finds that time has almost stopped for him. For every minute that passes for him, only a second of real time has gone by. He learns the secret to turning this ability on and off and takes advantage of it in a variety of ways, both scholarly and well, sneaky. Some of the things he does are a bit childish, but who wouldn`t take advantage of that kind of power for a few pranks?
Of course this is only the beginning of the power over time, and there is a price to pay if the he doesn`t advance to the next stage.
If you haven`t read Lafferty before, this is a good story to start with.
