Viktor Georgievich Skorniakoff (1911-1993) - Esteemed Russian-American publisher and writer. Skornyakoff's notable works include the novel "Island of Serenity" (1972) and the short story collection "Door with Tricks," which explores post-war life in Vienna, Warsaw, and New York, featuring diverse themes from chess to the experiences of displaced persons.

His satirical cycle, "Implausible Stories," presents a collection of tales purportedly compiled by the time-traveling Professor Nostradamovich from Odessa, offering a whimsical glimpse into the early 21st century. Published by Skornyakov's own imprint, this rare edition is a testament to his unique voice in speculative fiction.
