Beschreibung
"More Voices of the Radium Age will showcase proto- and early sf stories by much-admired authors best known today for their non-sf work (E. Nesbit, author of Three Children and It and other popular children's fantasies, and Booth Tarkington, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Magnificent Ambersons); authors whose outsized success with readers would influence the subsequent development of the sf genre (H.G. Wells, who continued to make startling predictions in the early 20th century, and Abraham Merritt and George Allan England, who along with Edgar Rice Burroughs ushered in the crucial era of the pulp scientific romance); as well as writers who have now fallen into obscurity (George C. Wallis, the Russian Symbolist litterateur Valery Bryusov, "weird" horror master Algernon Blackwood, and Francis Stevens, "the woman who invented dark fantasy"). Note that Nesbit and Stevens are two of sf's only female writers pre-1926"--
