This collection of 12 new essays draws together prominent literary
experts to explore the importance of Scottish writer Iain (M.)
Banks, both his mainstream and science fiction work. The book
considers Banks as an habitual border crosser who makes things
fresh and new by subversive and transgressive strategies. The
essays are divided into four thematic areas: the Scottish context,
the geographies of his writing, the impact of genre, and a combined
focus on gender, games and play. The essays will be of particular
interest to scholars of contemporary literature, Scottish
literature and science fiction.
