Title: | Review of Andrew Milner, 'Locating Science Fiction' (Liverpool: Liverpool University Press, 2012). Liverpool Science Fiction Texts and Studies, 44, www.liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk. Pp. 244. Hb £70.00.

'Locating Science Fiction' is an impressive work of critical and cultural theory that engages with the literary sub-field of SF in its many guises, treatments and forms. SF's guises have included its eras of Golden Age, New Wave and Cyber Punk; its critical treatments have encompassed Post-colonial, Afro-futurist, Feminist and Post-feminist, Marxist and Post-Marxist, Post-modernist, Psychoanalytic, and Ecocritical. SF's diversity of forms includes comic strips and cartoons, radio and television serials, films, short stories and novels. | Publication Type: | Review | Source of Publication: | Australian Folklore (27), p. 239-243 | Publisher: | Australian Folklore Association, Inc | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 0819-0852 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 199999 Studies in Creative Arts and Writing not elsewhere classified 169999 Studies in Human Society not elsewhere classified 200299 Cultural Studies not elsewhere classified |
