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 outstanding short story "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.

Industry Reviews

"Almost certainly the most informed and enlightening study we are likely to see of an author whose work deserves a good deal more scholarly attention that it has thus far received. Let us hope that this clearly written and deeply thoughtful study can help get that discussion going."-Science Fiction Studies
