Insightful Plus Rare Stories
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Jeff Smith has collected private letters and musings of the wildly imaginative Alice Sheldon. Included are some rarely found stories: "The Color of Neanderthal Eyes" and the amazing "Trey of Hearts". Tiptree was the best of the best, and Smith's collection throws some light onto this great writer's complex personality. It's a fine collection, a must-have for any Tiptree fan.

James Tiptree, Jr. was my grandmother. This was the only one of her books that I have read so far in my life because I didn't realize that her real last name was Sheldon. I enjoyed it a lot because it is a great sci-fi.

Meet Me At Infinity by James Tiptree, JR. Hardcover - 352 pages (February 2000) Tor Books; ISBN: 0312858744 Who was the most convincing imposter in Science Fiction? Robert Heinlein's Double Star? Lois Bujold's "Admiral" Miles Naismith? Nope...it would be James Tiptree, Jr. aka Alice Sheldon, gender bender, Hugo winner, psychiatrist and onetime member of the CIA. Editor David Hartwell deserves our thanks for putting together this illuminating collection of stories previously published and not, and adding his insights into this important and interesting author's writing and life. It's not a polished group of stories, but a gathering of full pieces and fragments...all fascinating. As Harlan Ellison remarked; "Quite a different can of worms. It has something...I have no idea what." Highly recommend
