Partners in Wonder revolutionizes our knowledge of women and early
science fiction. Contrary to accepted interpretations, women fans
and writers were a welcome and influential part of pulp science
fiction from the birth of the genre. Davin finds that at least 203
female authors, under their own female names, published over a
thousand stories in science fiction magazines between 1926 and
1965. This work explores the distinctly different form of science
fiction that females produced--one that was both more utopian and
more empathetic than that of their male counterparts. Partners in
Wonder presents, for the first time, a complete bibliography of
every story published by women writers in science fiction magazines
from 1926 to 1965 and brief biographies on 133 of these women
writers. It is thus the most comprehensive source of information on
early women science fiction writers yet available and of great
importance to scholars of women's studies, popular culture, and
English literature as well as science fiction.
