Interspersed with the joyously whimsicle are tales that turn a searchlight on our deepest hopes and our darkest fears. Wry and ironic, this is nevertheless a celebration of love from a writer very frimly on the side of the angels. |

Then, at the end of the process, I hoped and prayed to God that there were a few people out there who would enjoy it." - Ellen Degeneres. |

Sky, |
Stories. The protagonists in this brilliantly quirky collection include bellydancers, bag ladies, lesbians, and sojourners from distant times. Bellydancing was originally performed at the bedside of women in labour, as an erotic dance of creation. In these provocative stories "bellydancer" is an archetypal survivor, a dancer through trance and dream. Interweaving whimsical stories of enchantment with macabre plots, Lee flaunts the illicit and mocks the market demand for the exotic. With her distinctive blend of humour and melodrama, she spins allegorical tales and stories for sheer entertainment. |

These stories are as much about nature of science fiction as they are about the imagined and fantastical worlds they describe. Joanna Russ once more draws on her talent for vivid charactisation to involve us in worlds not our own, exploring gender and power relationships in past and future to illuminate our own time. 'Souls', the first story in the collection, won the 1983 Hugo Award. |
