This major study of the work of Joanna Russ provides an introduction to the major feminist issues relevant to her work and assesses its development. The book looks at the function of woman-based intertextuality. Although it deals principally with Russ's novels, it also examines her short stories, and the focus on critically neglected texts is a particularly valuable feature of the study.
Keywords: science fiction, Joanna Russ, intertextuality, novels, short stories
