A Conversation Larger Than the Universe
Readings in Science Fiction and the Fantastic 1762–2017
This catalogue, which accompanied an exhibition held at the Grolier Club, argues for a broad description of science fiction that encompasses fantasy and horror. Beginning with the origins of science fiction during the Gothic Period, Henry Wessells contemplates such topics as the end of the world (and after), imaginary voyages, dystopia, women authors, literary innovation, humor, the Sixties, rock and roll, cyberpunk, and steampunk, as well as current trends in science fiction and the fantastic.
