Kim Stanley Robinson answers your questions im Stanley Robinson has had a remarkable career since he published his first novel, The Wild Shore , 12 years ago. Since then he has averaged slightly less than a book a year (not counting short story collections), and nearly every one has defined its own niche in the science fiction genre. But with the conclusion of his Mars trilogy, Robinson has created what might be one of the grandest literary science fiction epics to date. Together the three novels Red Mars Green Mars and Blue Mars (see our review, this issue) chronicle the colonization and terraformation of Mars over hundreds of years and through dozens of viewpoints. Last week Robinson sat down with Science Fiction Weekly the Mars trilogy to dystopian science fiction. Here's what he had to say: 1) What inspired you to write the Mars trilogy? Ian Watts, iwatts@awod.com Many of the things I'm most interested in can be talked about in a new and interesting way by putting them on Mars. I like mountains above tree line, desolate coastlines, deserts, and wilderness generally, and Mars gives you a lot of that. The pictures returned from the Mariner and Viking missions gave us an entirely new wilderness planet, with many stupendous features, and all of it as rocky and bare as I like it. So it was a good landscape, and relatively untouched, in that the earlier Mars science fiction had to work with very little information about the landscape, some of that wrong. Also, the process of terraformation, which Mars is a great candidate for, brings up all the issues of ecology and environmental management that are most pressing for us right now here on Earth. Mars functions as a mesocosm experiment in planetary control, in that it's bigger than a lab but smaller than the Earth's complex biosphere.

4. Colin Glassey On Kim Stanley Robinson Kim Stanley Robinson is yet another great California science fiction writer (he lives in Davis, California). He is more poetic than the other California SF http://www.teleologic.com/crghome/robinson.html

The Novels of Kim Stanely Robinson Last updated August 12, 1997 Kim Stanley Robinson is yet another great California science fiction writer (he lives in Davis, California). He is more poetic than the other California SF writers (David Brin, Greg Bear, and Greg Benford) probably because he is not an engineer by training. This is no slam on engineers (I'm one) but there is plenty of room for beauty in language in science fiction, even though it is rare. Kim Stanley Robinson has staked out an interesting territory in the field of science fiction. Basically Robinson writes about the future of society, much like the great Robert Heinline. I think very highly of Kim Robinson. His Mars Trilogy ranks with the finest science fiction writen (despite its flaws). Red Mars, Green Mars, Blue Mars For some reason, Robinson decided to try and write a trilogy of novels that would tell the story of the colonization and terra forming of our neighbor planet Mars. These stories are breathtaking in their scope, in the depth of knowledge revealed about Mars, and in the plausibility of the future he describes. In many respects, this is a work of genius. But the first two novels are flawed. In the first two novels, each chapter continues a roughly sequential narrative by telling the story of a different person. Since each chapter has a different narrator and a different focus, the result is somewhat confusing and very irritating. I understand that Robinson is trying to tell a big story, but he has a lot of space to work with (the total length of the three books together is over 1500 pages). His decision to use different people for each chapter makes the over-all novel wildly uneven. I wish he had stayed with just a few people (like three or four) and told their stories over time. I wish he hadn't killed off his most interesting characters at the end of the first book. I wish he would spend more time dealing with how Earth is reacting to and part of the terraforming of Mars.

The Edge Index Kim Stanley Robinson Interview by Mike Don This interview first appeared in Mike Don's Dreamberry Wine The Edge , but we were unable to include it. The Martian trilogy is something of a departure from your previous work, in that it's a far more ambitious undertaking. What's the background to this? I try to match the form of my books to the idea I had, and having had the idea to tell the story of the terraforming of Mars - it's a big idea - I thought it was going to be one novel. In my mind it was called 'Green Mars'. I wrote that story years ago just to claim the title because I knew it would take me years to finish, and I didn't want anyone else to grab that title in between times. I started writing the project still thinking of it as just one book. I wrote about 200 pages of the first draft; and they [the colonists] hadn't even arrived. At that point I thought, there's no way this is going to fit in just one book; so I had a talk with my wife and my agent, and they said, well, it sounds like a trilogy to us. It was relatively easy to figure out what the other titles should be, given that the story was about changing the colour of the planet. Then I just had to execute it. In the events of Green Mars , and the early part of Blue Mars , there seem to be slight parallels with the circumstances of the American revolution . . .

HOME Science Fiction Kim Stanley Robinson Kim Stanley Robinson Red Mars - Red Mars opens with a tragic murder, an event that becomes the focal point for the surviving characters and the turning point in a long intrigue that pits idealistic Mars colonists against a desperately overpopulated Earth, radical political groups of all stripes against each other, and the interests of transnational corporations against the dreams of the pioneers. This is a vast book: a chronicle of the exploration of Mars with some of the most engaging, vivid, and human characters in recent science fiction. Robinson fantasizes brilliantly about the science of terraforming a hostile world, analyzes the socio-economic forces that propel and attempt to control real interplanetary colonization, and imagines the diverse reactions that humanity would have to the dead, red planet.

science fiction author " ...creativity and inspiration for me is not a matter of one big moment of vision (though sometimes that can happen) but more a ceaseless application of effort to matters of detail. " How were you motivated to choose your particular field? What can you share about your creative process? Stories begin for me as images or ideas, often quite vague or fragmentary. Translating those beginnings into finished works of art is a matter of hard work over the long haul. Because I work with words and sentences, I must always focus on that level; not so much the big picture, as making a particular sentence spark an image in the reader's mind. So I often begin before I am ready to begin, and write in ignorance, doing my best sentence by sentence, and then when I've gone through the story once I go back and revise, time after time, and only late in the process does the vision I am trying to convey come into focus. So I would say that creativity and inspiration for me is not a matter of one big moment of vision (though sometimes that can happen) but more a ceaseless application of effort to matters of detail. That too is creativity. What ideas do you have for a future human community on Mars?

Science Fiction Studies #62 = Volume 21, Part 1 = March 1994 Bud Foote A Conversation with Kim Stanley Robinson During last June’s SFRA Convention in Reno, Stan and I sat down for an hour for a wide-ranging conversation about his work and his ideas. It was June 19, 1993, the day after he and I had appeared in the same session, he to present his ideas on postmodernism in the genre, and I to discuss his novel Red Mars in the context of his other work. ( Red Mars is, of course, the first of a trilogy; Green Mars should appear early in 1994, Blue Mars in 1996.) I transcribed the whole conversation and edited it down to manageable form; Stan made a few emendments before I produced this final version. Nothing substantial has been added, but peripheral matters we judged interesting only to the two of us have been largely eliminated, or at least I hope so. Bud Foote: Stan, I note that Red Mars is set in the same future history as the novella "Green Mars" and the novel Icehenge Kim Stanley Robinson: Very roughly. In the earlier works I didn’t have the complete conception of what I wanted to do in mind, and I don’t think of myself as building a future history. Each of those works attempts to be a complete thing. It is true that in

SEARCH: advertisement An Interview With Kim Stanley Robinson posted: 11:47 am ET 26 June 2000 The man who can tell you everything about what it takes to terraform Mars is not surprised by the confirmation of water on the Red Planet. In his three "Mars" novels ( Red Mars, Green Mars, Blue Mars ), Kim Stanley Robinson constructed a vision of the Red Planet and humanity's evolving relationship with it that spans hundreds of years and as many characters. The achievement has been likened to " War and Peace with spaceships"; another comparison might be to a space-age Moby Dick Robinson spoke to SPACE.com about the discovery of an indispensable requirement for life as we know it, whether native to the Red Planet or imported from Earth. "It was no surprise . . . The best analogy for space in the next half century is probably Antarctica in the last half century." SPACE.com: What was your reaction to the news that Mars recently had liquid water and possibly still does? Kim Stanley Robinson : It was no surprise. The huge outflow channels are solid evidence of a great deal of water on the surface in the distant past oceanic amounts of water. Some is still there to be seen in the polar caps, some of it no doubt escaped into space, the rest is quite certainly under the surface, frozen in

I would hope that it would de-occidentalize them, what we would call 'disorientation,' so that they had to reconsider what they thought they knew about history. As for the current war on terrorism, the more context the better; and the more we know about Islam, the better." See Book Reviews on January Magazine. Fourteen miles west of California's parking lot-covered capital, Sacramento, you'll find a 70-acre neighborhood of single-family homes and co-op apartments called Village Homes. Each structure in the quiet, tree-lined Davis, California suburb features solar water heating, natural cooling systems and a natural drainage system that also irrigates eight cooperatively cultivated orchards and a vineyard. Energy consumption is one-third to one-half that of other neighborhoods in Davis. Bound together through the "warp and weft" of committees, boards and potlucks, its residents govern Village Homes with a cheerful semblance of democracy. Science fiction novelist Kim Stanley Robinson has served on its elected board of directors, volunteered on the community's horticultural committee and architectural review board, and written for its newsletter. "I moved into Village Homes in 1991," says Robinson, "and it strangely echoed what I had already written in my utopian novel

CONTENTS Art Gallery Articles Columns ... Forum Interview: Kim Stanley Robinson By Lynne Jamneck 15 August 2005 Kim Stanley Robinson is widely regarded as one of the best SF writers working today. Best known for his Mars Trilogy which began with Red Mars in 1992, and won the 1993 Nebula for best novel, the trilogy continued with Green Mars (1993) which won the 1994 Hugo for best novel and concluded with Blue Mars (1995) which won the Hugo for best novel in 1997 . His work has also garnered him numerous other awards, including the John W. Campbell Memorial Locus , and World Fantasy Awards. Forty Signs of Rain , the first novel in a new sequence, was released in 2004, and Fifty Degrees Below , the second book, will be released in hardcover this October. Lynne Jamneck: If the concept of causality is anything to go by, where are we heading as a collective species within the next 50 to 70 years? Kim Stanley Robinson: The population will be between 7 and 10 billion, and I imagine it will be a time of considerable tension, as people struggle to get out of capitalism into something more sustainable and just, and to forestall any further damage to the environment. That will require a world effort and considerably more cooperation than we have now, so who knows how it will be dealt with. Race of progress against catastrophe. Interesting times. LJ: Do you think that the cyberpunk literature movement has run its course? Is there an antithesis to it its dystopian outlook?
