The Atheist in the Attic

The Atheist in the Attic

Outspoken Authors: Book 20

Samuel R. Delany

Appearing in book form for the first time, The Atheist in the Attic is a suspenseful and vivid historical narrative, recreating the top-secret meeting between the mathematical genius Leibniz and the philosopher Spinoza caught between the horrors of the cannibalistic Dutch Rampjaar and the brilliant "big bang" of the Enlightenment. Also Delany's "Racism and Science Fiction" combines scholarly research and personal experience in the unique true story of the first major African-American author in the genre. This collection features a bibliography, an author biography, and the candid and uncompromising Outspoken Interview.

Table of Contents:

  • The Atheist in the Attic - novella
  • Racism and Science Fiction - (1998) - essay
  • "Discourse in an Older Sense" - interview by Terry Bisson
