"In Other Worlds: SF and the Human Imagination" is Margaret Atwood"s account of her lifelong relationship with the literary form we have come to know as "science fiction", from her days as a child reader in the 1940s, through her time at Harvard, where she studied the Victorian ancestors of the form, and later as a writer and reviewer.
She brings together three Ellmann lectures: "Flying Rabbits" begins with her early rabbit superhero creations, and goes on to speculate about masks, capes, weakling alter egos and Things with Wings; "Burning Bushes" travels into Victorian otherlands and beyond; and "Dire Cartographies" investigates Utopias and dystopias, including Atwood"s own ventures into those constructions.
