Since they began appearing in the 1970s, Michael Bishop' s science fiction and fantasy stories have been recognized for their polished prose and their depth of thought and feeling. His award-winning fiction includes No Enemy but Time (1982), Unicorn Mountain (1988), Brittle Innings (1994) and the prolific short fiction "The Pile" (2008). After the 2017 publication of his collection Other Arms Reach Out to Me, Bishop was inducted into the Georgia Writers' Hall of Fame. Revision and republication of much of Bishop' s fiction in recent years have renewed interest in Bishop' s explorations of religion, belief and the pursuit of human truth. This book is the first comprehensive study of Michael Bishop' s literary body, examining his work in full. Featured are close readings of all his novels and studies of short stories, poetry and essays that Bishop himself identified for special attention.
Joe Sanders, professor emeritus, Lakeland Community College, has written extensively about Roger Zelazny, E. E. "Doc" Smith, and Neil Gaiman. He lives in Willoughby, Ohio.
