Oh, wow!! Fabulous work, y'all!--Liz Henry 19:28, 18 April 2007 (PDT)
While looking up publication dates, I just found Phyllis Gotleib's Birthstones (with an afterword by Nalo Hopkinson), and it sounds really promising!
"Space Opera has the reputation - not entirely undeserved - as being the power fantasies of maladjusted teenage boys. But, for over fifty years, Toronto author Phyllis Gotlieb has proven that this subgenre can be complex, intelligent and even feminist. Her new novel, "Birthstones", is no exception. ... It is this deftness, as well as Gotlieb's sensitivity to character, that earned her a Governor General's Award Nomination." -- Sunday Book Review
"A visionary novel in the tradition of Ursula K. LeGuin and James Tiptree, Jr., by a leading feminist author."
