Tomorrow and Tomorrow & The Fairy Chessmen is a 1951 collection of two science fiction novellas by Lewis Padgett (pseudonym of Henry Kuttner and C. L. Moore). It was first published by Gnome Press in 1951 in an edition of 4,000 copies. Both of the novellas originally appeared in the magazine Astounding. P. Schuyler Miller placed the stories "among the best of the kind [of] the van Vogtian tradition of ultra-involved mystification."[1]
