Description

Samuel R. Delany's Atlantis: Three Tales is a collection of three interconnected stories that explore the intricate relationships between memory, experience, and the self. Through a unique blend of historical and philosophical insights, Delany delves into the complexities of human identity and the power of transgression. This thought-provoking work is a testament to Delany's reputation as a master of postmodern science fiction and fantasy. The stories within are not traditional science fiction, yet they share a sense of unsettling power that sets them apart from mainstream fiction. With its broad appeal across academic, black, gay, and postmodern constituencies, Atlantis: Three Tales is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in exploring the intersection of theory and fiction. First published in 1995, this edition is now available in paperback, offering a new opportunity to engage with Delany's visionary work.
