Evolution Man

by Roy Lewis

Father is a subhuman. Father is seriously dedicated to the advancement of the species. Father invented the portable volcano as well as important advancements in the arts and sciences. But Uncle Vanya keeps dropping in to dinner -- Uncle Vanya still lives in the trees, so the dropping is literal -- and he doesn't buy the program.

A clever little family story, nicely told.
