🪐 Speculative Futures Reading Group: ‘The Einstein Intersection’ by Samuel R. Delany

February 28 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

1960s pulp cover of Samuel R. Delany's novel 'The Einstein Intersection,' with a painting of a dramatically lit bull monster facing down a person near a machine with a sword(?) in his hand.

On Wednesday, February 28th at 7:00 p.m. we’ll meet to discuss the novel The Einstein Intersection by Samuel R. Delany. Hope to see you there!

A member of an alien race, Lo Lobey has assimilated the mythology of earth, where his kind have settled. The tale follows Lobey’s mythic quest for his lost love Friza. The deeper story, however, concerns the way those who are “different” must deal with the dominant cultural ideology. THE EINSTEIN INTERSECTION won the Nebula Award for best science fiction novel of 1967.
