- the cover
on Amazon.de you can now
a first look at the cover of American SF anthology THE BLACK MIRROR throw, in which I will be present with my story ASTRO SAPIENS. As the publication date is provisionally 31 December 2008 stated, there does not appear, it is common when the book will appear. For more detailed information and the list of authors can see from my NEWS entry from 16.03.2008.
text, the publisher of the book taken from the U.S. side of Amazon is:
This entertaining anthology delivers great reading and on overview of German-language science fiction, including works by the "German father of science fiction" Kurd Lasswitz, the Austrian writer Ludwig Hevesi (author of "Jules Verne in Hell"), the fantasist Paul Scheerbart (a scurrilous, idiosyncratic writer who was an outsider in both literature and science fiction), popular writers Otto Willi Gail and Hans Dominik, as well as the contemporary luminaries of the genre: Wolfgang Jeschke, Herbert W. Franke, Andreas Eschbach, and Carl Amery. The introduction by the editor gives a succinct history of German language science fiction, including its representation in Hugo Gernsback's popular magazines. With select bibliographies of German language science fiction and writings on German science fiction, this book will be appreciated by scholars and general readers alike. A closeup of the cover that I like very well, it is here
