¡°The shape of things¡± is a science fiction short story written by Ray Bradbury and first published in 1948.
Peter and Polly Horn's baby is born, and the baby is shaped like a blue pyramid. This is because the baby was born in another dimension due to a malfunction in the birthing machine.
The couple decides to bring the baby (who they call Py) home to raise. Polly struggles psychologically with the baby's condition, Peter tries to adapt to the situation, and Doctor Wolcott also tries to return the baby to his original dimension...
The story deals with parental love, the relativity of perception of reality, and adaptation to unusual circumstances.
Summary
He did not want to be the father of a small blue pyramid. Peter Horn hadn't planned it that way at all. Neither he nor his wife imagined that such a thing could happen to them. They had talked quietly for days about the birth of their coming child, they had eaten normal foods, slept a great deal, taken in a few shows, and, when it was time for her to fly in the helicopter to the hospital, her husband, Peter Horn, laughed and kissed her.
"Honey, you'll be home in six hours," he said. "These new birth-mechanisms do everything but father the child for you."
