Description

Charting the intertwined histories of modernism and science fiction since the era of Virginia Woolf and H. G. Wells, this book reveals how 21st\-century feminist science fiction writers have inherited and taken forward the innovations of earlier literary pioneers. The Science Fiction Futures of Modernism<\/i> explores how the response of modernist writers such as Woolf and Naomi Mitchison to social change in the early 20th century has informed the increasingly feminist counter\-public sphere of speculative fiction writers such as Octavia Butler, N. K. Jemisin and Ann Leckie. Including innovative close readings throughout, Nick Hubble demonstrates the ways in which these contemporary writers use metafictional techniques to imagine alternatives to the repressive political systems we have inherited today.
