A new view of early women SF writers,
By
This review is from: Partners in Wonder: Women and the Birth of Science Fiction, 1926-1965 (Hardcover)
When science-fiction got its start in the pulps, nobody would have dreamed it would one day be a subject of scholarship. As SF grew in stature, so did its myths including the one that it was a closed shop to women writers in its early days. I had believed women SF writers were the exception unless they used male pseudonyms. I was wrong, and stand corrected by the awesome scholarship and research which produced this volume. It will be of great interest to anyone interested in the roots of SF (also true of the author's previous "Pioneers of Wonder."
