DARK MATTER Reading the Bones Speculative Fiction from the African Diaspora
Aspect. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 2004. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 0446528609 . VG. Book is actually new but has light shelfwear to jacket involving scuffing of jacket & light edge wear. Small remainder mark across upper edge. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 416 pages; "In an excellent idiosyncratic collection of sf fantasy and folktale-derived fiction by African American including Caribbean writers the quality of writing is uniformly high and the contributors constitute practically a who's who of African American writers who have dealt in speculative fiction beginning with W. E. B. DuBois represented by a piece dating from 1920. Samuel Delany Nalo Hopkinson Tananarive Due and Walter Mosley also appear and the tone of most of the stories even "Anansi Meets Peter Parker at the Taco Bell on Lexington" is serious and even desperate. One compensation for that tone is that Mosley seems much more at home in short sf and fantasy than he is at novel length as in Blue Light 1998. But writing of this quality speaks eloquently for itself and so do such surprises as Carol Cooper's panegyric to the consciousness-raising influence of Andre Norton one of three essays at the end of the volume.
