Why read it?
1 author picked Meet Me at Infinity as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
James Tiptree Jr. is really Alice Sheldon. She wrote under a male pseudonym for many years due to the male domination of science fiction at the time. Meet Me at Infinity is a great introduction to her work, as it contains both fiction and biographical pieces. She’s a tremendous writer who I found to be very inspiring. Her ability to craft impactful stories with strong female characters is amazing. The Tiptree Award is named after her.
From Mike's list on fantasy and science fiction with feminist themes.
