Asimov's Mysteries, published in 1968, is a collection of 14 short stories by American writer Isaac Asimov, almost all of them science fiction mysteries (although, as Asimov admits in the introduction, some are only borderline). The stories were all originally published in magazines between 1954 and 1967, except for "Marooned off Vesta", Asimov's first published story, which first appeared in 1939.

  • Asimov's Mysteries, published in 1968, is a collection of 14 short stories by American writer Isaac Asimov, almost all of them science fiction mysteries (although, as Asimov admits in the introduction, some are only borderline). The stories were all originally published in magazines between 1954 and 1967, except for "Marooned off Vesta", Asimov's first published story, which first appeared in 1939. Four stories in the collection feature the character of Wendell Urth, who is a leading extra-terrologist (an expert on alien worlds and life originating on them). Urth is eccentric in that he has a phobia of all mechanical forms of transport (an exaggeration of Asimov's own aversion to flying). Physically Urth resembles Norbert Wiener. Urth appears in the stories when he is consulted by an agent of the Terrestrial Bureau of Investigation, H. Seton Davenport, in cases which have him baffled – a parallel with the way in which Inspector Lestrade consults Sherlock Holmes. In a fifth story in the collection, "The Dust of Death", Asimov shows Davenport a generosity that Conan Doyle never extended to Lestrade in demonstrating the former's ability to solve a case for himself without Urth's assistance.

Ce recueil a été découpé pour l'édition française en deux parties qui ont été publiées pour la première fois en France en 1969. L'ouvrage a été entièrement préfacé par Asimov lui-même et comporte pour la majorité des nouvelles des ante-scriptum et/ou des post-scriptum.

  • Misteri. I racconti gialli di Isaac Asimov (Asimov's Mysteries) è un'antologia di racconti gialli fantascientifici di Isaac Asimov, del 1968. Contiene 13 storie scritte fra il 1955 e il 1967, insieme ad alcuni commenti dell'autore, originariamente pubblicati su riviste. Quattro racconti della raccolta (La campana canora, La pietra parlante, La notte morente e La chiave) hanno come protagonista Wendell Urth, un eminente extraterrologo (scienziato esperto di mondi alieni e della vita che si potrebbe essere formata su di essi). Urth è eccentrico nella sua fobia per tutte le forme meccanizzate di trasporto (un'esagerazione della paura di volare di Asimov). Come descrizione fisica di Urth somiglia molto a Norbert Wiener. Esiste anche un'altra antologia con identica raccolta, commentata da Asimov, con titolo "La chiave e altri misteri", pubblicata nel 1975 da Fanucci Editore. (it)
