"Sisters of the Revolution" gathers a highly curated selection of
feminist speculative fiction (science fiction, fantasy, horror, and
more) chosen by one of the most respected editorial teams in
speculative literature today, the award-winning Ann and Jeff
VanderMeer. Including stories from the 1970s to the present day,
the collection seeks to expand the conversation about feminism
while engaging the reader in a wealth of imaginative ideas. From
the literary heft of Angela Carter to the searing power of Octavia
Butler, "Sisters of the Revolution" gathers daring examples of
speculative fiction's engagement with feminism. Dark, satirical
stories such as Eileen Gunn's "Stable Strategies for Middle
Management" and the disturbing horror of James Tiptree Jr.'s "The
Screwfly Solution" reveal the charged intensity at work in the
field. Including new, emerging voices such as Nnedi Okorafor and
featuring international contributions from Angelica Gorodischer and
many more, this collection seeks to expand the ideas of both
contemporary fiction and feminism to new fronts. Moving from the
fantastic to the futuristic, subtle to surreal, these stories will
provoke thoughts and emotions about feminism like no other book
available today. Other contributors include Anne Richter, Carol
Emshwiller, Eleanor Arnason, Hiromi Goto, Joanna Russ, Karin
Tidbeck, Kelley Eskridge, Kelly Barnhill, Kit Reed, L. Timmel
Duchamp, Leena Krohn, Leonora Carrington, Pamela Sargent, Rose
Lemberg, Susan Palwick, Tanith Lee, Ursula K. Le Guin, and Vandana
Singh.
