A is for Alien
Caitlin R. Kiernan
A is for Alien is award-winning author Caitlin R. Kiernan's first collection
devoted entirely to her science-fiction work. It includes the critically
acclaimed novelette Riding the White Bull (chosen for The Year's Best Science
Fiction, 22nd Annual Collection), along with seven other tales of a
less-than-utopian future. Ranging from the wastelands and mountains of Mars to
the streets of a late 21st-Century Manhattan, from the moons of Europa and
Saturn to an iceless Antarctica, these tales bring Kiernan's trademark brand of
the eco-gothic to bear on what it means to be human and the paths and decisions
that may face mankind only a little farther along.
