His sf was written in association with Michael KURLAND. Ten Years to Doomsday (1964), a straight collaboration, is a lightly written INVASION tale with a good deal of activity in space and on other planets. The Butterfly Kid (1967) was written by CA alone, but stands as the first volume of a comically surrealistic SHARED-WORLD trilogy set in Greenwich Village, the second instalment being The Unicorn Girl (1969) by Kurland and the third The Probability Pad (1970) by T.A.WATERS. The trilogy stars all three authors (
RECURSIVE SF), who become involved in the attempts of a pop group to fight off a more than merely psychedelic invasion menace: Greenwich Village is being threatened by a pill which actualizes people's fantasies. Other works: Fox \& Hare (1980), a fictionalized memoir of the real lives behind the trilogy.
