MLI Home Personal Stories Samuel R. Delany and Me This isn't so much a story as a series of vignettes. They span from my early adolescence to mid-twenties. The author Samuel R. Delany keeps popping up every now and then in my life. Early Adolescence My first exposure to Delany's work was in the mid-'70s. I'd started reading science fiction by then. At the local bookstore, his novel Nova caught my eye, mostly for the evocative cover. It was an unusual SF novel; its language was very rich and dense. If your standard Asimov, Clarke, or Heinlein novel was a dress shirt, Nova was a full length robe, embroidered by hand, depicting a long forgotten battle where armored people rode mythical animals into battle against the Winds. The work was also different in that it was hard to grasp exactly what was going on. You didn't notice at first, but the robe had holes. Even after reading the book several times, its language and details, rather than plot, stay in my mind. The bookstore had another Delany book for sale: a mammoth tome named Dhalgren . I figured if a short novel is good, then a big one must be better. I wasn't prepared for the incredible differences between the two works. If

CONTENTS Art Gallery Articles Columns ... Forum A Sense of Wonder: Samuel R. Delany, Race, Identity and Difference by Jeffrey Allen Tucker Reviewed by Greg Beatty 08 December 2005 A Sense of Wonder is a serious critical appraisal of many of Samuel R. Delany's central works. Within the focus author Jeffery Allen Tucker sets for himself, the work is quite successful. Given that caveat, it is clear that I have some issues with the study, but let me begin by reviewing what the book does well, and who it will serve. As the subtitle "Race, Identity, and Difference" indicates, A Sense of Wonder Tucker uses contemporary critical theory to analyze Delany's work. He begins with an extended direct discussion of how Delany's work intersects with the political arguments around identity, and then devotes a chapter each to Dhalgren , the Return to Neveryon series, The Motion of Light in Water (Delany's autobiography), and Atlantis: Model 1924 , before closing with a discussion of Delany's AIDS-related writing. This sliding focus is useful for both academic and genre readers, as it demonstrates the links between the elements of Delany's work with which each camp is familiar and the other points on his highly varied spectrum. I fall into both camps, and I learned a great deal about Delany's work through Tucker's study. That said, there are elements of the book that will frustrate both sets of readers. Genre readers will be baffled by the limited attention paid to both Delany's award-winning short stories and his highly influential critical essays. Academic readers familiar with both postmodern theorists and genre theory will grow restless at Tucker's nearly absolute failure to integrate the two. Both sides may grow a little restless at Tucker's extended introduction and early chapter discussing identity. To be blunt, this section is slow going, and reads too much like a dissertation in which Tucker is intent on showing how fully he's mastered the critical terms current in the field.

59. Samuel R Delany: Nova - An Infinity Plus Review Nova isn t a bad book in any sense, in fact as I ve already said it s both intriguing and intelligent. However http://www.infinityplus.co.uk/nonfiction/nova.htm

Nova: SF Masterworks 37 by Samuel R Delany (Gollancz, £6.99, 224 pages, paperback, ISBN 1-85798-742-X; first published 1968; this edition 11 January 2001.) Provocative statement: I've found most of Delany's books to be mildly disappointing. There, I've said it in front of everyone. Mildly disappointing. Not 'rubbish', not 'dull', but just mildly disappointing. After reading of his unsurpassed genius for years and being unable to find any copies of these fabled works extant in the shops or libraries, I was very excited to get hold of Babel-17 and The Einstein Intersection and Triton just a few years ago. The Einstein Intersection was dreadful, Triton was superb and Babel-17 like the subject of this review was intriguing and intelligent but not terribly gripping. Was there something wrong with me? Was I an ignorant fool with no appreciation of great literature? Well, maybe. The story draws on aspects of the Grail legend: a powerful ruler (albeit of a corporation) gathers a group of loyal followers (a spaceship crew) in search of the ultimate prize (Illyrion, the substance that powers everything in the 31st century) from a castle perilous (the heart of an exploding star).

60. Ralph Dumain: "The Autodidact Project": Samuel R. Delany's Multiplexity Simplex, complex and multiplex according to samuel R. delany, with additional comments about noplex and simplexity, from the science fiction novel Empire http://www.autodidactproject.org/quote/delaney2.html

Simplex, Complex, and Multiplex From the Wisdom of Samuel R. Delany "I have a multiplex consciousness, which means I see things from different points of view. . . ." [p. 6] "Intelligence and plexity have nothing to do with each other." "Lump, I don't think you do understand. So listen. Here you are, in touch with all the libraries and museums of this arm of the galaxy. You've got lots of friends, people like San Severina and the other people who're always stopping by to see you. You write books, make music, paint pictures. Do you think you could be happy in a little one-product culture where there was nothing to do on Saturday night except get drunk, with just one teletheater, and no library, where maybe four people had been to the university, and you never saw them anyway because they were making too much money , and everybody knew everybody else's business?" "No." ". . . . You couldn't be happy there, I could. It's as simple as that, and I don't really think you fully comprehend that." "I do," Lump said. "I hope you can be happy in someplace like that. Because that's what most of the universe is composed of. You're slated to spend a great deal of time in places like that, and if you couldn't appreciate them, it would be rather sad."
