New issue: Ryman picks Delany, Lemberg poem, reviews
Added 2015-11-25 17:27:44 +0000 UTCImagine, then, a story that is effectively a post-gay, queer sensibility story being published in 1967—a story so prophetic that it leapfrogs all of the slog of gay and gender politics, AIDS, and queer and gender theory to simply show us that in the future there will be new genders and new kinds of sex.
I'm a couple of days late with this update because I'm on a day-job business trip to Paris: but this week's issue is up and waiting for you! In it you can find the rest of Geoff Ryman's explanation for why he picked Samuel R. Delany's "Aye, and Gomorrah..." to be our featured reprint; the story itself, of course; a new poem by Rose Lemberg, plus November's poetry podcast; and reviews of books by Aliya Whiteley and Zen Cho, and of the recent Talos theatre festival in London.
Things have calmed down very slightly in SH-land with the completion of the last post fund-drive admin -- all winners in this year's prize draw have now been contacted, and if prizes haven't already been sent to you, they will be on their way very shortly. But of course that just means we can turn our attention to planning for next year ... More immediately, we're putting the finishing touches to our November ebook, which will be released next Monday, along with the final issue of the month. See you then.
