A BRILLIANT STUDY
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This is a brilliant study of Stapledon by Leslie A. Fiedler, Samuel Clemens Professor of English at the State University of New York at Buffalo. How often does a science fiction writer get such a thorough treatment by a renouned literary critic? Fiedler brilliantly illuminates the complexity and richness that underlie Stapledon's fiction. A "must have" work for all science fiction fans.
