Delany Fiction Collective 2, 2004 Hogg, a wonderfully bizarre & extreme story. Well, I first heard about Hogg via a friend, during a discussion about the Anne Rice "Sleeping Beauty Trilogy". If you thought SBT was extreme, nothing quite prepares you for reading Hogg. I was disgusted with the characters, but felt that he did a good job in ...             Babel-17/Empire Star Samuel R. Delany Vintage, 2002 Great stories I like the both novels. LUMP's my favorite. I liked Babel-17 and Empire Star better than Dhalgren, the book I enjoyed but felt it was a little too ambitious to package the story completely. I liked them better than Nova that was entertaining but lacked a depth. ...             Nova Samuel R. Delany Vintage, 2002 Melville in the Future I have a feeling this is going to be my summer of Delany. I read Nova on the heels of his short story collection Aye, and Gomorrah and the virtues that I found in that collection are also to be found in this novel in spades. Delany writes with an attention to detail, ...             Times Square Red, Times Square Blue Samuel Delany, Samuel R. Delany NYU Press, 2001 Prelude and fugue Samuel Delaney has done the near imposible - he has written a book that is both titillating and informing. Dividing his cogent 21st Century social philosophy into two parts is at first disconcerting: Why are we reading (buying) a book that lets us in on the gossip of ...             The Sandman Vol. 5: A Game of You Neil Gaiman, Bryan Talbot, ... Vertigo, 1993 It would make a great companion to THE MAXX I can't help but think of The Maxx Volume 1 (Wildstorm/DC Comics)) as I read A Game of You - after all, both entail the stories of young women pulled into their fantasy world and the play between the two, complete with heroes, princess fantasies, and a desire to be ...             Stars in My Pocket Like Grains of Sand Samuel R. Delany Wesleyan, 2004 Delany has a lot more than 5 stars in his pocket Delany is one of the greatest writers of any genre.

Delany Vintage, 2001 Deserted Cities of the Heart Where to begin with a book like this? This book should be an essential, classic novel of 20th C American life, but can't be because of its frankness and graphical descriptions of sex that have come to be a perceived blemish on Delaney's career. My college roommate ...             Aye, and Gomorrah: And Other Stories Samuel R.

A book is a machine to generate interpretations, as Eco wrote.

Due to my own life experience, I perceive, perhaps, ...             The Jewel-Hinged Jaw: Notes on the Language of Science Fiction Samuel R. Delany Wesleyan, 2009 On Display: The Guts of Science Fiction When this was first published in 1977, there was very little first-rate critical analysis of science fiction, or even much analysis of any degree of excellence.

Joanna Russ Wesleyan, 2005 For those who believe in survival of none I was young when I first read "We who are about to..."
