A phyllis of the sierras opens in the remote expanse of the Sierra Nevada, where a traveler from abroad wanders from the main path into a world marked by rustic charm and quiet complexity. Drawn to the serenity of the landscape and seeking escape from physical and emotional weariness, the traveler arrives at a homestead perched above a deep canyon. The household, run with quiet order and warmth, offers a place of rest, where the rhythms of frontier life contrast with the visitor s past experiences. Early encounters reveal vibrant domestic conversations and moments of unexpected candor, hinting at deeper emotional landscapes. Tensions arise not through overt conflict but through subtle gestures, overheard dialogue, and the pressures of unspoken expectation. The presence of strong, independent local women, their layered expressions and shifting moods, shapes the evolving emotional atmosphere. Illness becomes a lens through which vulnerability and desire emerge, and as days pass, nature s grandeur and the household s quiet routines begin to erode the traveler s detachment. The novel moves with a gentle but persistent undercurrent, weaving reflections on place, connection, and the often-unexpected course of human feeling.
Gotlieb is a writer central to the Canadian science fiction canon. Though she has been called the queen of Canadian SF by Robert J. Sawyer, and though David Ketterer has suggested that she is Canadian SF, Gotlieb has been largely overlooked by SF studies. This book delves deeply into her body of work and traces her career in detail. Offering close readings of Gotlieb's novels, short stories (including ones not reprinted since their initial appearances), and SF-related poetry, this study explores Gotlieb's development as a writer and her characteristic themes. The book also references her manuscripts when the differences between them and the published stories provide insights into her working methods. The book enumerates and analyzes Gotlieb's innovative explorations of common SF tropes such as the superhuman, human-alien interaction, and the galactic empire, her prevalent thematic concerns (e.g., reproduction, colonization, the mind-body relationship, the essence of "humanity") as well as her stylistically dense and literary approach to the genre.
Vivienne's diary delves deep into the societal intricacies of the early 1900s, where the newly minted Royal Australian Navy drew its cultural moorings from the upper echelons of the Royal Navy. In 1916, a heart-wrenching tragedy shatters the fa ade when Vivienne, the Headmaster's elder daughter, is believed to have taken her own life. Left in the wake of this calamity is twelve-year-old Phyllis, who grapples with grief and abandonment. With her parents emotionally absent and physically distant, she finds solace in Tally, cadet-midshipman and Vivienne's beau. But as war calls him to Scapa Flow in 1917, Phyllis is cast adrift. In her quest for affection, Phyllis stumbles, her heart often leading her astray, until fate causes her to marry Tally, now a Lieutenant. Yet, what promises a safe harbour turns stormy with a loveless union and Tally's deteriorating health. As Phyllis navigates a life marred by addiction and multiple marriages, her constant remains Ginnie, her ever-faithful Persian cat, who not only provides solace but also offers a unique narrative lens, weaving a tale of love, loss, and resilience.
WHO IS SHE? She is a mother. She is a victim. She is a sister. She is a survivor. She is a lover. She is a degenerate. She is a woman. She is an object. She is a writer. She is a star of stage and screen. Phyllis Stine is everything and this is her poetry. INCLUDES A BONUS INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHOR
