On another list a few months, we were discussing Margaret Atwood's "The Handmaid's Tale" and "Oryx and Crake". Someone mentioned that Ms Atwood was adamant about her works being NOT Science Fiction (apparently, if they are mainstream novels, they sell better????))
One member disagreed and even offered to explain to Ms. Atwood why those works are SF. My question is this: what makes a book/story SF? Any definitions appreciated. George A _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
