Banks, both his mainstream and science fiction work. It considers Banks as a habitual border crosser who makes things fresh and new by subversive and transgressive strategies. The essays are divided into four thematic areas--the Scottish context, the geographies of his writing, the impact of genre and a combined focus on gender, games and play--and will be of particular interest to scholars of contemporary literature, Scottish literature and science fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martyn Colebrook\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0786442255\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780786442256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.04h x 6.02w x 0.54d","brand":"Martyn Colebrook","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46199054991615,"sku":"9780786442256","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bd2a19bb-19b3-4470-b185-dfe62f8d7f36.jpg?v=1727924898","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-transgressive-iain-banks-martyn-colebrook-9780786442256","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
