pretty good stuff. pretty good reading. the importance of "supraterrestrial" fiction in the history of ... whatever literature is ... is still not an existant in the "scholarshipness" of things "important." Hemingway is. The literature of hopelessness still rules the day, and from the way things are going, apparently the future. But that does not change the reality. Science fiction was the road that the sane, positive, inventive, creative, and rational writers sprinted onto, and it is the wise and the less evil who trod after them, reading the messages they would lay by the roadside for Man to read and wonder at, then run to the next message.
