In einer weit entfernten Zukunft gelten die Gesetze von Raum und Zeit nicht mehr, und auf der Erde haben sich Geschöpfe angesiedelt, die uns Menschen nur auf den ersten Blick ähnlich sehen.

Starboard Wine: More Notes on the Language of Science Fiction
ISBN: 9780819568847 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Starboard Wine, Samuel R. Delany explores the implications of his now-famous assertion that science fiction is not about the future. Rather, it uses the future as a means of talking about the present and its potentiality. By recognizing a text's specific "difference," we begin to see the quality of its particulars. Through riveting analyses of works by Joanna Russ, Robert Heinlein, Theodore Sturgeon, and Thomas M. Disch, Delany reveals critical strategies for reading that move beyond overwrought theorizing and formulaic thinking. Throughout, the author performs the kinds of careful inquiry...

Times Square Red, Times Square Blue
ISBN: 9780814719206 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 203 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. If one street in America can claim to be the most infamous, it is surely 42nd Street. Between Seventh and Eighth Avenues, 42nd Street was once known for its peep shows, street corner hustlers and movie houses. Over the last two decades the notion of safety-from safe sex and safe neighborhoods, to safe cities and safe relationships-has overcome 42nd Street, giving rise to a Disney store, a children's theater, and large, neon-lit cafes. 42nd Street has, in effect, become a family tourist attraction for visitors from Berlin, Tokyo, Westchester, and New Jersey's suburbs. Samuel R. Delany... If one street in America can claim to be the most infamous, it is surely 42nd Street. Between Seventh and Eighth Avenues, 42nd Street was once know... |

About Writing: Seven Essays, Four Letters, & Five Interviews
ISBN: 9780819567161 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Award-winning novelist Samuel R. Delany has written a book for creative writers to place alongside E. M. Forster's Aspects of the Novel and Lajos Egri's Art of Dramatic Writing. Taking up specifics (When do flashbacks work, and when should you avoid them? How do you make characters both vivid and sympathetic?) and generalities (How are novels structured? How do writers establish serious literary reputations today?), Delany also examines the condition of the contemporary creative writer and how it differs from that of the writer in the years of Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and the high Modernists....
