James Tiptree, Jr. burst onto the science fiction scene in the 1970s with a series of hard-edged, provocative short stories. Hailed as a brilliant masculine writer with a deep sympathy for his female characters, he penned such classics as Houston, Houston, Do You Read? and The Women Men Don't See. For years he corresponded with Philip K. Dick, Harlan Ellison, Ursula Le Guin. No one knew his true identity. Then the cover was blown on his alter ego: A 61-year-old woman named Alice Sheldon.

A Must-Listen for Fans of Sci-Fi and Genuinely Interesting People
Revisado: 11-05-22
A fantastic, heartfelt biography of a person sincerely more interesting than even the space explorers and aliens she wrote about. Especially recommended for queer/gender-queer intellectuals searching for portraits of people who might look something like them. The stars feel a little closer, and sadder, and better.
Thank you, Phillips; thank you, Tip.

Toru, a serious young college student in Tokyo, is devoted to Naoko, a beautiful and introspective young woman, but their mutual passion is marked by the tragic death of their best friend years before. As Naoko retreats further into her own world, Toru finds himself drawn to a fiercely independent and sexually liberated young woman.

A Good, Slow Burn
Revisado: 09-05-20
I’d been meaning to read this since enjoying 1Q84, Hardboiled Wonderland, and one of Murakami’s short story books. While all of his works are heady and thoughtful, Norwegian Wood is a special example of the author’s ability to capture the richness of the mundane world (don’t expect the mad surrealism of some of his other works). Sensory, sensual, and calm—I will remember these characters with tenderness.
Perfect for a string of rainy afternoons, or for a lonely April.
