Feminist science fiction is a rich space at the intersection of popular literature and feminist thought, where extraordinary other worlds are imagined by writers such as Ursula Le Guin and Suzy McKee Charnas. Women of Other Worlds examines this phenomenon, collecting work from all aspects of feminist SF - fiction, poetry, criticism, fan-writing, even a recipe. It presents an international sampler of a vibrant and challenging form of contemporary women's writing.
"As exciting as it is challenging, this is an excursion to the cutting edge of twentieth century intellect..." - Van Ikin.
