paradoxosalpha: An admirable and award-winning assortment of stories. I think they will speak powerfully to any intelligent reader, not just genre fans.

Explications
paradoxosalpha: As an SF author, Leigh Brackett is known for her planetary romances, which are indeed very fine. But this novel, perhaps her most lauded book-length work, involves a more serious and credible look at the future of our society.

paradoxosalpha, andersonden
Explications
paradoxosalpha: Throughout various essays, Haraway construes SF multivalently as "speculative feminism," "string figures," "speculative fabulation," "science fantasy," and the more customary "science fiction," and asserts it as part of her philosophical resources and method. The final chapter of this book is an SF narrative imagining a future over the period 2025-2425.
