AUTHOR
SUMMARY
"In "This Alien Shore"..., C. S. Friedman borrows some big ideas from writers like Cordwainer Smith, Frank Herbert, and Samuel R. Delany, and runs with them. Instead of stumbling under the burden, she succeeds in making the recycled material her own....In interweaving the many threads of her narrative, Friedman has created a potent metaphor for the toleration of diversity--an ever-evolving society where 'the genes of wild genius' are acknowledged as necessary for survival."Friedman, C. S. is the author of 'This Alien Shore', published 2004 under ISBN 9780886777999 and ISBN 0886777992.
