{"product_id":"x-y-z-t-damien-broderick-9780809509270","title":"x, y, z, t: dimensions of science fiction","description":"Damien Broderick  has had a major impact as an Australian SF writer since 1964. He is undoubtedly the leading Australian theorist of the SF genre' (Russell Blackford, Van Ikin, Sean McMullen, Strange Constellations). Now, Broderick draws upon his skills as both critic and novelist to analyze science fiction of the last two decades, and its earlier roots. The book proposes sf as a distinctive form of writing, the extreme narrative of difference, then closely reads authors such as John Barnes, Jamil Nasir, Wil McCarthy, Robert Grossbach and Poul Anderson. While concentrating on exciting work published in the USA and Britain, Broderick does not neglect his own country's contributions, discussing sf by George Turner and other Australians. His critical voice is wry, entertaining and occasionally scathing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Damien Broderick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 080950927X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780809509270\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Borgo Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 5.98w x 0.68d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAsimov's Science Fiction\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2005 pg. 140","brand":"Damien Broderick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059796701439,"sku":"9780809509270","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_45e13112-1890-4a26-8343-c753794b79a1.jpg?v=1685060390","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/x-y-z-t-damien-broderick-9780809509270","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
