This is your Politically Incorrect Guide® to a literary tradition that is a key to understanding the modern world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Before men knew how to write, they were telling each other stories of gods and monsters. But science fiction and fantasy are not escapist literatures and they never have been. Science fiction grapples with the great questions of technology and human society. Fantasy grapples with the great questions of the human spirit. A reader who can find his way to the enduring classics of these genres will be immeasurably enriched.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In this book you’ll learn about futurists and dreamers such as Ray Bradbury and J. R. R. Tolkien, master storytellers such as Orson Scott Card and Isaac Asimov, troubled scribes such as J. K. Rowling and George R. R. Martin, and failed visionaries who preach a dysfunctional anti-human future such as Ursula LeGuin and the covens of woke disciples infesting the literature of the imagination.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Politically Incorrect Guide to Science Fiction and Fantasy\u003c\/i\u003e is a gazetteer to futures filled with big dreams and innovation, imparting a healthy sense of wonder and mapping those dangerous regions filled with dragons waiting to consume with fire the careless, uninformed, and prideful.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e All is chaos, yet nothing is new.
