To Serve Man is a short story by Damon Knight.
It is told from the point of view of a translator working at the United Nations, as he narrates the story of the Kanamit, a race of aliens that seem to radiate goodwill, friendship, and plentiful gifts.
Humans are naturally distrustful of unconditional gifts. We have been raised to always question, always be curious and never take anything at face value. Which is something I'd like you to do as you listen to this story.
