Atwill maps the cultural contours of space-age America through readings of some of the era's most popular and influential narratives. Together, Atwill demonstrates, these key texts comprise a literary history of the space age, an exploration of the novel's possibilities in uncertain times, and a disturbing critique of postwar society.
