Book excerpt: The invaders are one enemy. Political correctness is the other.We were defenceless. The invaders could take the planet without a shot being fired. Not that the government would try to defend us. Not on your life. They were in a centuries-long state of denial. They were so blinded by political correctness, they called the invaders "visitors" and named the destructive beams "cultural displays." For a Navy guy like me, it was heartbreaking. I was ready to fight. But the military had been reduced to nothing but a stage for social experiments. Half the personnel couldn't fire a weapon. Only a few of could actually hit anything. Not that they wanted to. But then the "visitors" did something strange. Parked up there beside the moon, they ignored all requests for "cultural exchange." Instead, they demanded a meeting with just four people. One of the people was me, Lieutenant Alex Burns. Until then, I'd languished on shore leave, without prospects. All of a sudden, I was on my way to the moon and the "friend ship" itself. But I was also headed for trouble so bad, I can't describe it, not without ditching the government protocol.So, you better let me explain in my own words.

Download or read book Brian W Aldiss written by Paul Kincaid and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brian W. Aldiss wrote classic science fiction novels like Report on Probability A and Hothouse. Billion Year Spree, his groundbreaking study of the field, defined the very meaning of SF and delineated its history. Yet Aldiss’s discomfort with being a guiding spirit of the British New Wave and his pursuit of mainstream success characterized a lifelong ambivalence toward the genre. Paul Kincaid explores the many contradictions that underlay the distinctive qualities of Aldiss’s writing. Wartime experiences in Asia and the alienation that arose upon his return to the cold austerity of postwar Britain inspired themes and imagery that Aldiss drew upon throughout his career. He wrote of prolific nature overwhelming humanity, believed war was madness even though it provided him with the happiest period of his life, and found parallels in the static lives of Indian peasants and hidebound English society. As Kincaid shows, contradictions created tensions that fueled the metaphorical underpinnings of Aldiss's work and shaped not only his long career but the evolution of postwar British science fiction.
