Bradford Morrow (EDT), Peter Straub (EDT) New Wave Fabulists

Annotation

Literary spins on the science fiction, fantasy, and horror genresfrom Karen Joy Fowler, Neil Gaiman, Jonathan Lethem, China Mieville, and many more. Over the past three decades, the most adventurous practitioners of the literary arts of science fiction, fantasy, and horror have been transforming those genres into something all but unrecognizable. In Conjunctions' game-changing New Wave Fabulists issue, guest editor Peter Straub has put together an anthology of innovative literary reinventions of traditional ';pulp' forms. Contributors range from Jonathan Lethem to Neil Gaiman, from John Crowley to Kelly Link, from Elizabeth Hand to China Mieville. Gary K. Wolfe and John Clute contribute essays on the ongoing evolution of genre, while the brilliant cartoonist Gahan Wilson has created the cover and original frontispieces for each story.
