Larry McCaffery is a literary critic and editor, and a retired professor of English and comparative literature. His many books include Storming the Reality Studio: A Casebook of Cyberpunk and Postmodern Science Fiction and Some Other Frequency: Interviews with Innovative American Authors.
"Both the general reader and the academic can learn a great deal
here about cyberpunk, the function in SF of sexuality, the roots of
the Urth of the New Sun, and much, much more."--Analog"Across the
Wounded Galaxies includes the most in-depth and comprehensive
series of interviews with SF authors ever published."--Mississippi
Review
" Unlike those narcoleptic cryptics who nod through the motions of
pomo in a prose sterile and besmirched with jargon as that of the
most tedious scholarship, McCaffery is locked in a crazy love
affair with the contemporary. . . . These interviews are plain fun
to read."--American Book Review
"A must for the serious student of the genre."--ALA Booklist
