Product Information
This timely book explores what might be termed 'Gothic science fiction' from 1980 to 2010. This designation may at first appear contradictory, as the Gothic's connotations of the irrational and supernatural seem to conflict with the rational foundations of science fiction. However, this collection demonstrates that the two categories in fact overlap and intersect in creatively and critically fruitful ways. Understanding texts of this period by means of this hybrid category allows a fresh examination of their engagement with the dramatic socio-economic changes - in communication technology, medical science, globalization, and global politics - that have transformed the way we live, and for which Gothic science fiction texts provide compelling narrative modes. The essays in this collection reflect the current willingness among researchers to explore interpretations across genre, form, and discipline, as well as revealing a buoyant field of research in contemporary Gothic and science fiction studies. The collection ranges across narrative media (including literature, film, graphic novels and trading card games) and across genres, taking in horror, science fiction, the Gothic, the New Weird and more. The essays explore questions of genre, medical science, gender, biopower and capitalism, demonstrating the ways in which Gothic science fiction texts stage contemporary concerns around power, anxiety, resistance and capital.

Reviews
Reviews 'It's about time that there was a publication such as this, which explores this relationship between the two genres - and the often hybrid nature of that relationship - in a manner that is timely, relevant, and generally, very interesting indeed. This is a valuable collection which should appeal to scholars working in the growing fields of Gothic and SF studies.' Bernice Murphy, Science fiction and gothic fiction appear at first to be incompatible, if not actual opposites, but with this collection, Wasson and Alder show that there is a strong strain of the gothic in many of the most interesting science fiction texts of the past three decades. Covering fiction, movies, graphic novels, and even card games, the contributors explore how the two approaches to the unknown inform and enrich each other....the scholarship and understanding of the field are impeccable. Summing Up: Highly recommended., 'This is a successful volume that will appeal to students and scholars of English-language sf. Many of the articles are excellent and will prove to be essential for scholars researching Gothic sf.'
