GROGAN, Gerald

GROGAN, Gerald
(1884-1918)
   UK writer, killed in WWI. His sf novel, A Drop in Infinity (1915), carries its unwilling protagonists via a mad SCIENTIST's device into an empty but congenial PARALLEL WORLD. A lengthy ROBINSONADE evolves during which the protagonists become reconciled to their lot, have children, survive a crisis and find themselves finally isolated from Earth.
