About This Item
Synopsis
New Maps of Hell is a series of lectures about critical literary analysis of science fiction, including it's history from rough beginnings as short stories in pulp magazines up to the mid-seventies. Includes many synopses, breaks down the "types" of science fiction, and provides a thoughtful introduction to an often scoffed at form of modern literature.
