James Tiptree, Jr. Award

2010-03-18T04:47:57Z

Kitsuchi: /* Winners */

The '''James Tiptree, Jr. Award''' is an annual literary prize for works of [[science fiction]] or [[fantasy]] that expand or explore our understanding of [[gender]]. It was initiated in February of 1991 by authors [[Pat Murphy]] and [[Karen Joy Fowler]], subsequent to a discussion at [[WisCon]] (then the world's only [[feminism|feminist]]-oriented [[science fiction convention]]).

The award is named for [[James Tiptree, Jr.|Alice B. Sheldon]], who wrote under the pseudonym [[James Tiptree, Jr.]] By choosing a masculine ''nom de plume,'' having her stories accepted under that name and winning awards with them, Sheldon helped demonstrate that the division between male and female SF writing was illusory. Years after "Tiptree" first published SF, Sheldon wrote some work under the female pen name "Raccoona Sheldon"; later, the SF world discovered that "Tiptree" had been female all along. According to the Tiptree Award Council, this discovery led to widespread discussion over which aspects of writing, if any, have an intrinsic gender. To remind audiences of the complicated role gender plays in both reading and writing, the award was named in Sheldon's honor.

Fundraising efforts for the Tiptree have included publications, auctions, and feminist bake sales.

==Discussion==

The Tiptree Award is one of the few awards that embodies science fiction-ness in its award process. It's not a popularity contest; it's not an award for literary quality; it's not an award based on sales. It's an award for "exploring" a concept -- a fundamentally science fictional thing to do. Popularity and attention to a work give it impact; literary quality makes it possible to deliver the exploration and make it work. But the science fictional notion of ''exploration'' is at the heart of the Tiptree Award.

Mass Effect

2009-10-12T10:42:34Z

Kitsuchi: new entry

[[Mass Effect]] is an action role playing game produced by [[Bioware]], available for Xbox 360 and PC. The main character, Commander Shepard, can be created as male or female, and is highly customisable, including skin colour. The game is set in the year 2183, where humanity interacts with a variety of alien races. It also manages not to whitewash humanity's future at the same time, and many of the NPCs are people of colour.

== Squad members ==

*'''Ashley Williams''' - Ashley is a human soldier. She is a romancable option when you play a male Shepard.
*'''Kaidan Alenko''' - Kaidan is a human Sentinel with biotic abilities, which have the side effects of giving him severe migraines. He is a romancable option when you play a female Shepard.
*'''Liara T'Soni''' - Liara is an asari scientist, and a romancable option whether Commander Shepard is male or female.
*'''Tali'Zorah nar Rayya''' - Tali is a a quarian engineer.
*'''Garrus Vakarian''' - Garrus is a turian C-sec officer, the equivalent of the police force
*'''Urdnot Wrex''' - Wrex is a krogan mercenary.

== Aliens ==

Several of the races met in the game, going off the voices, we only meet male characters – the turians, krogans and salarians, for example, despite there supposedly being females in these species as well. Bioware has been criticised for not providing female models of these races. <ref>[http://forums.theirisnetwork.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1882 The Iris Network forums]</ref> Species met in the game include:

===Asari===
The asari are a humanoid [[List of single-sexed species|monogendered]] race that read as female. They are capable of reproducing with other alien species, and have a preference for this, over reproducing with other asari.

===Krogans===
Krogans are a hardy and warlike race. During the Krogan Rebellions, the krogans were infected by the turians with a biological weapon called the genophage. This affected their ability to reproduce, as it meant most krogans were stillborn, and resultingly the krogan race is nearing extinction. During the game, you discover that Saren has created a cure for the genophage; however, this is destroyed along with his base.

Kitsuchi: link, cat

[[Eva Fairdeath]] is a novel by [[Tanith Lee]], published in [[1994]] though originally written in [[1973]].

It is set [[post-apocalypse]], in a world with little technology. Women are definitely second-class citizens. Eva, the protagonist is albino, has always been treated as a freak and has grown up quite nasty. She is mentally unstable, and spends much of the book in a depression. She leaves her hometown to follow a man she names Steel, who 'sells death'. They end up in a polyamorous threesome with another man, Sail, after many adventures and having been all horrible to each other.

False utopia

2009-08-18T08:04:01Z

Kitsuchi: /* Examples */

'''Discovery of the dystopian truth''' is a plot frequent and common to dystopian novels. In this plot, the central POV-character/protagonist initially believes they live in a utopia, or at least an okay world. During the course of the work they discover the truth -- that their world is actually dystopian.

==Examples==
* ''[[This Perfect Day]]'' by [[Ira Levin]]
* ''[[1984 (novel)]]'' by [[George Orwell]]

[[Sheri Tepper]]'s ''[[The Gate to Women's Country]]'' plays with this theme, but the novel is ambiguous about the society.

Many YA and children's books have been written that fulfill this trope. These include:
* ''[[The Giver]]'' by [[Lois Lowry]]
* ''[[Andra]]'' by [[Louise Lawrence]]
* ''[[Juno of Taris]]'' by [[Fleur Beale]]
* ''[[The Lake at the End of the World]]'' by [[Caroline MacDonald]]
* ''[[Uglies]]'' by [[Scott Westerfeld]]
* ''[[The Other Side of the Island]]'' by [[Allegra Goodman]]
* ''[[Outlanders]]'' by [[Margaret Beames]]

The Wild Swans (folktale)

2009-08-08T08:57:52Z

Kitsuchi: new entry

'''The Wild Swans''' is a fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen, and is essentially the same story as ''The Six Swans'', collected by the Brothers Grimm.

It is the story of a princess whose brothers are all turned into swans by her stepmother. In order to save her brothers, she must weave each a shirt of nettles, all the while never speaking. Having left home, she lives in the woods making her shirts; one day she is discovered by a king, who takes her home to be his wife. This is more creepy in some renditions than others.

They are married, but the king's mother dislikes her and believes her to be a witch - after all, she never speaks, and she hangs out in graveyards collecting nettles. She has nearly finished the shirts when she is to be burnt as a witch, and when she is tied to the stake, her brothers fly to her. She throws the shirts over them and they turn back to men, all but her youngest brother whose shirt was unfinished; thus he retains a swan's wing. The girl is able to explain her 'witchcraft' and is saved.

This is a list of works written by women and eligible for SF awards to be given out in 2009 based on works published from January 1, 2008, to December 31, 2008. Awards that follow this eligibility format include the Hugo, the Campbell, the World Fantasy Award, the Tiptree, and the Phillip K. Dick. (The Nebulas have a rolling period of eligibility for nomination based on the specific date a work was published.) We're listing these works as a form of [[award activism]]: to bring them greater attention, to share information about them for ourselves, and to help avoid problems like the [[2006 Hugo vacuum]]. See [[Eligibility and voting by award]] for a quick index of information about individual awards, and links to the individual award pages for more detail.

Please include here ''any eligible work'', along with the relevant information: title, publication date, and format. For novels, it's useful to search Amazon for the author's name: the list of works has publication date and format right there.

Note: Some awards are based on ''first publication'' and other awards are based on first publication in the US, England, etc. If a work was first published outside of the time period but would be eligible for some awards, please add it and add in parentheses any restrictions or explanations about eligibility.

Whilst published only as an adult novel in Australia, US and UK editions of the book were published as YA.<ref>[http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2009/jul/05/tender-morsels-childrens-novel-sex Thorpe, Vanessa "Parents alarmed over sex assault in children's novel", 5 July 2009, guardian.co.uk]</ref> As the book includes scenes of gang rape, forced abortions and bestiality (and probably worst of all - consensual sex!), this was a controversial move by the publishers.

The Ask and the Answer

2009-07-20T07:41:02Z

Kitsuchi: typo

[[The Ask and the Answer]] is the second book in [[Patrick Ness]]'s [[Chaos Walking]] trilogy, released in [[2009]]. Unlike the first novel, ''[[The Knife of Never Letting Go]]'', the book is told in the alternate voices of the protagonists Todd and Viola, who are separate for much of the novel. The books are set on a foreign planet that humans have settled and coexist with a sentient native species, the spackle. Todd was born on the planet, while Viola was a scout for a second wave of human colonists.

== Themes in ''The Ask and the Answer'' ==

This section contains spoilers.

=== Gender ===

Men on the New World have 'the Noise', which means everyone else, including the women, can hear their thoughts; women have no Noise. This is a source of distrust between the sexes. This is distrust is furthered by the actions of President Prentiss, who, upon his invasion of Haven, insists upon gender segregation. Prentiss was also discovered in ''[[The Knife of Never Letting Go]]'' to have been responsible for the murder of all the women in Prentisstown, and later in ''The Ask and the Answer'' he bands the women of Haven.

Outside of the policies of President Prentiss, sexism appears to have already been an issue in Haven: men are 'doctors' while women are 'healers'. The women who lead the resistance against President Prentiss's takeover are from the ranks of the healers. This resistance group, called The Ask, is mostly women, and are responsible for many bombings in Haven, which leads up to open warfare.

=== Morality during wartime ===

Viola questions the terrorist policies of the Ask, and just how far you can go in pursuit of freedom. Though the Ask's attacks are aimed at unoccupied buildings, there are casualties. Later the Ask lead an assault on Haven, in an attempt to have the city reclaimed by the time Viola's people arrive.

Todd, meanwhile, is under the thumb of President Prentiss, who threatens him with the suggestion that he'll harm Viola otherwise. Todd is assigned to control the spackle, who have been enslaved and set to work. He participates in the collaring of the spackle – with collars that will kill if removed – and later of the women of Haven, justifying it by saying it's better he do it than someone else who might be crueler. President Prentiss also sets about training him in interrogation techniques – or rather, torture – which are used upon women suspected of being in the Ask.

=== Colonisation and xenophobia ===

As well as being enslaved, the native spackle are given the 'cure' for the Noise, which is their natural method of communication. As a result, they are unable to talk within themselves. However, the people have not considered that 'their' spackle are not the only ones, and the novel concludes with the arrival of a spackle army on the scene.

Previously, humans and spackle have co-existed fairly peacefully – at least since the Spackle War, shortly after humans arrived on New World. They are looked upon with some affection, much like pets. It is clear they are not considered fully people – Todd, who is unable to kill a human, has murdered a spackle in the first book, and in ''The Ask and the Answer'' he deals with his guilt about this, even as he serves as an enslaver of the spackle.

The Knife of Never Letting Go

2009-07-20T06:17:03Z

Kitsuchi: new entry

[[The Knife of Never Letting Go]] is a [[2008]] young adult novel by [[Patrick Ness]]. It is the first in the [[Chaos Walking]] series, and is followed by ''[[The Ask and the Answer]]''. The series is set on a foreign planet that has been colonised by humans, despite the presence of an indigenous intelligent species, the Spackle. It also deals heavily with gender issues, and was the co-winner of the [[James Tiptree, Jr. Award|Tiptree Award]] for 2008.

== Plot overview ==

''The Knife of Never Letting Go'' is the story of teenagers Todd and Viola. Todd is born on a foreign planet in a town called Prentisstown, where no women live, and the men can all read each other's thoughts, and that of the world's animals, through what is called the Noise. Todd has been raised to believe that the Noise was caused by a contagion that also killed all the women on the planet, and that this contagion was released by the Spackle, who are the planet's native intelligence.

Viola has crash-landed on the planet as part of a scouting party, sent ahead of a group of settlers. Todd meets her after he has been told by his 'parents' Ben and Cillian to flee Prentisstown prior to his coming of age. He is astonished to discover that Viola, unlike everything else he has known, has no Noise. She and Todd travel together, as Todd is pursued by the men of Prentisstown.

Contrary to what Todd has been led to believe, Prentisstown is not the only remaining settlement on planet, and the women have not all died either. They all have no Noise though, and this is a source of conflict between the sexes. Todd and Viola continue to travel, with the aim of reaching the town of Haven, where they are said to have a cure for the Noise. However at the same time, Mayor Prentiss is putting together an army, with the intent of being President by the time Viola's people arrive.

Provost's Dog

2009-07-11T21:31:54Z

Kitsuchi: new entry

[[Provost's Dog]] is a series of books by [[Tamora Pierce]]. It is set in her world of [[Tortall]], some 150 years prior to the events of the [[Song of the Lioness]] series. It follows the adventures of [[Rebekah Cooper]] (an ancestress of George Cooper from Lioness books) in her training and work as a member of the Provost's Guard, Tortall's police force.

This is the first series Pierce wrote in the first person, and is written as Beka's diary. It also has a lot in common with her non-Tortallan series [[The Circle Opens]], in that it is not so much a straight fantasy adventure series, but is more focused on crime and detective work, in a fantasy setting.
