Future Is Female Volume 2, The 1970s: More Classic Science Fiction Stories By Women

About the book

Imagine it, if you can bear to look back: long ago, in a galaxy far, far away, the writing of science fiction was dominated by men, or what Ursula K. Le Guin once described as a 'baboon patriarchy' - its female characters figments of adolescent fantasy, awaiting rescue in bronze brassieres, to be mansplained to about rocketry and ray guns. Now cut to the 1970s - the coming-of-age decade from which the 20 stories gathered here emerged - when it all changed. Following on from The Future Is Female! Vol. 1, Vol. 2 presents the brave and compelling stories of the women who remade the genre in the 1970s.
