"His arrival in the sf world in 1962, at the same time as Samuel R Delany, Thomas M Disch, and Ursula K Le Guin, marked that year as a milestone in what seemed at the time to be the inevitable maturing of sf into a complex and sophisticated literature, whose language might finally match its intermittent hubris [...] Zelazny became a leading and representative figure of the American New Wave [...] he became instantly well-known for publishing stories whose emphasis had shifted from the external world of the hard sciences to the internal worlds explorable through disciplines like Psychology (mostly Jungian), Sociology and Linguistics" (SFE).

Zelazny won six Hugo awards at various periods in his long career, including three for short fiction: "Permafrost ","24 Views of Mt. Fuji, by Hokusai ", and "Unicorn Variation". His three Nebula awards were all for short fiction: "Home Is the Hangman" "He Who Shapes ", and "The Doors of His Face, the Lamps of His Mouth ".
