One of the very first stories I have read by Asimov was Exile to Hell,and has remained my favourite ever since.(Spoiler Alert) Basically its about a man sentenced to permanent exile.The place where the man (Jenkins) has been exiled to, is described as being similar to hell.However at the end it is revealed that the place compared to hell is Earth itself.Civilisation has moved to the moon and Earth is where criminals are sent to be punished.In the story the Earths green colour and gravity (which bears mankind down and tires him )has been described to be dreadful ,all this is of course from the perspective of a person from the mooon.
