We Who Are About To...

We Who Are About To... by Joanna Russ is the longest Alyx story, a novella about a party of people crossing the mountains on an alien planet after their ship crashes. Alyx is the wise and wily Trojan woman who has been teleported into the future to work as an agent for an extraterrestrial agency.

"I had turned from writing love stories ... to writing stories about women in which the woman won."
- Joanna Russ


This is the new release with an introduction by Samuel R. Delany. It is a reqired addition for my Delany & Russ collection.
