The Spook by Science Fiction’s Door
View through CrossRef
“The Spook by Science Fiction’s Door” discusses Joanna’s legendary “anger” and “aggression” in the light of the virulent male outrage her overtly feminist sf provoked, and the (covert) hostility to feminism of even trusted male colleagues. Her problematic fourth novel, We Who Are About To… (1976/77) is reassessed, emphasizing the deliberately schematic structure of this morality play about a failed radical activist, squabbling starship castaways, and “pregnancy by rape.” Pregnancy by rape is also the theme of an important essay, “Amor Vincit Foeminam,” discussed here, along with valuable, insightful essays on H. P. Lovecraft and horror fiction. Stories and reviews include a fine, Lovecraftian tribute to the actor Cecily Tyson, “My Boat”; and a critical response to Kate Wilhelm’s excellent but rather antifeminist The Clewiston Test.
