Editorial Reviews
Review
"This is an important science fiction novel." --The New York Times Book Review

"One of the pioneers and luminaries of women's science fiction!"--MS. Magazine

"If this were a film it could be one of Peckinpah's, violent, self-indulgent, obsessively contemptuous of humanity, nihilistic and fascinating."--Publisher's Weekly

"Wesleyan University Press, fortunately, has seen fit to reissue [We Who Are About To...] in a handsome trade-paperback edition. ...This is an important book. Read it afresh and let it speak to you." --New York Review of Science Fiction

Review
"Perhaps the most subtle, complex, and exciting science fiction novel ever written about the attempt to survive a hostile alien environment. It is characteristic of Russ's genius that her most sheerly readable novel is also one of her most intellectually intricate." (Carl Freedman, author of Critical Theory and Science Fiction )
