Eccentric Orbits Volume 4: An Anthology Of Science Fiction Poetry

Book 4: Eccentric Orbits

by Wendy Van Camp

Synopsis

Science fiction poetry is significant in our cultural landscape. It allows us to explore the boundaries of our imaginations. Speculative fiction has been a genre that pushes the limits of what is possible. Imagining how worlds and societies differ from our own, yet in a context that is understandable with the values of today.

The poems of this anthology grapple with complex ethical and moral issues. From exploring the effect of technology on our lives to the dangers of AI or unrestrained scientific progress, the verses remind us the choices we make will have far-reaching implications. They challenge us to think about the worlds we want to create for ourselves and our children.

In this volume, you will hear diverse voices from every corner of the globe and from many cultures. Represented are many of the finest poets in the speculative community. There are also a few debut poets gracing the page for the first time. I hope you find their words to be intriguing and allow you to consider new possibilities, both futuristic and fanciful.
