Focusing on the contemporary period, this book brings together
critical age studies and contemporary science fiction to establish
the centrality of age and ageing in dystopian, speculative and
science-fiction imaginaries. Analysing texts from Europe, North
America and South Asia, as well as television programmes and films,
the contributions range from essays which establish genre-based
trends in the representation of age and ageing, to very focused
studies of particular texts and concerns. As a whole, the volume
probes the relationship between speculative/science fiction and our
understanding of what it is to be a human in time: the time of our
own lives and the times of both the past and the future.
