About the author

Mark Clutter is a science-fiction author credited with Amour, Amour, Dear Planet!. The novel originally appeared in Planet Stories in March 1953 and has been preserved in modern digital archives, which is why readers can still discover it today.

Reliable biographical details about Clutter are scarce. In the sources available for this overview, the confirmed record is mainly bibliographic rather than personal: listings consistently tie the name to that 1953 work, but they do not provide a clear life story, dates, or a verified background.

That makes Clutter one of those intriguing pulp-era names who are known more through the survival of a story than through public biography. For readers of classic speculative fiction, that mystery can be part of the appeal.
