"ANTHOLOGY OF GREAT SF STORIES BY RENOWNED WOMEN SF AUTHORS! A collection of wonderful SF carefully selected by ground-breaking editor and author, Kristine Kathryn Rusch. Stories by Andre Norton, Anne McCaffrey, Lois McMaster Bujold, CJ Cherryh and more. Meet the Women of Futures Past: from Grand Master Andre Norton and the beloved Anne McCaffrey to some of the most popular SF writers today, such as Lois McMaster Bujold and CJ Cherryh. The most influential writers of multiple generations are found in these pages, delivering lost classics and foundational touchstones that shaped the field. You'll find Northwest Smith, C.L. Moore's famous smuggler who predates (and maybe inspired) Han Solo by four decades. Read Leigh Brackett's fiction and see why George Lucas chose her to write The Empire Strikes Back. Adventure tales, post-apocalyptic visions, space opera, aliens-among-us, time travel--these women have delivered all this and more, some of the best science fiction ever written! Includes stories by Leigh Brackett, Lois McMaster Bujold, Pat Cadigan, CJ Cherryh, Zenna Henderson, Nancy Kress, Ursula K. Le Guin, Anne McCaffrey, C.L. Moore, Andre Norton, James Tiptree, Jr., and Connie Willis"--"Meet the Women of Futures Past: from Grand Master Andre Norton and Anne McCaffrey to today's popular SF writes such as Lois McMaster Bujold and C.J.

Rusch wrote a very second-wave feminist introduction, disavowing all this identity stuff, partly in order to justify her selection of stories that didn’t have female protagonists but instead showed off the variety of women writers who’ve long worked in sff, but are often left out of histories (as Rusch herself was in F&SF’s own list of its editors!). Featured: Norton, McCaffrey, Bujold, Cherryh, Brackett, Kress, Le Guin, Zenna Henderson (new to me), Cadigan, C.L. Moore, Tiptree, Willis. Brackett’s The Last Days of Shandakor was probably the most interesting of the ones I’d never read, because it did seem to encapsulate a certain mode of “Earth man explores alien culture he doesn’t understand.” ( )
