Plumage from Pegasus
Author: Paul Di Filippo
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504093852
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
“Nothing is sacred to Di Filippo, as shown in this hilarious collection of parodies and other satirical writings that affectionately send up the SF genre.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) No one has a finger on the pulse of the future quite like Paul Di Filippo, and here he sets his sights on humanity’s path in the wake of social media, artificial intelligence, and virtual reality—all with tongue firmly in cheek. In an age of poetry slams and publicity stunts, an author struggles to upgrade his stale live appearances in “Pimp My Read.” Let “Kozmic Kickstarter” put you on the ground floor of such futuristic projects as a chorus of doppelgängers, a live-role-playing simulation of the entire canon of ancient Star Wars movies, and more! In “The Very Last Miserabilist in Paradise,” a science fiction writer—used to delivering bad news about the future—searches for meaning in an era of unprecedented sanity, in which war and inequality, hatred and prejudice have vanished. Take “A Walk on the Mild Side” with a new production company that seeks to soothe an overstimulated populace with cozy new translations of old classics, such as Game of Thrones which features nothing but direwolf puppies being bathed by the Stark family. Head into the future with your sense of humor intact thanks to the thirty stories in this remarkable collection from a master of satirical science fiction.

Author: Edward L. Ferman
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Fantasy fiction, American
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
The April 1965 issue of "The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction "is a landmark in the history of science fiction because it was the first issue of that publication to have been edited by Edward L. Ferman, who is widely recognized as one of the outstanding editors in the field.This issue marked the first time that a cartoon by Gahan Wilson was published. The issue is further distinguished by Poul Anderson s Arsenal Port, the second in his trilogy of space privateers; an early story from Robert Rohrer, Keep Them Happy; Gerald Jonas s poem Imaginary Numbers in a Real Garden; Basil Davenport s thoughtful review of a number of contemporary books including Isaac Bashevis Singer s "Short Friday "and William Golding s "The Spire; "TP Caravan s wry relation of a Blind Date; Roderic C. Hodgins s The History of Doctor Frost; Jane Beauclerk s evocative Lord Moon; Isaac Asimov s discussion of The Certainty of Uncertainty and his poignant Eyes Do More Than See; and Len Guttridge s whimsical Aunt Millicent at the Races. As in the previous facsimile in this series, the editors add specially invited memoirs from Poul Anderson, Theodore Thomas, Isaac Asimov, Robert Rohrer, Roderic C. Hodgins, Jane Beauclerk, Len Guttridge, and Bert Tanner together with their own observations and commentary to create a volume of unusual merit."
