Interview with author Vicki Pettersson What is the title of this young adult science fiction book I read when I was young?
Apr 202010


My first book “review” is the science fiction classic Dhalgren by Samuel R. Delany. This first part just explains the story’s set-up. Sorry again about the mic problems. I’m not sure how to fix those peaks, but I’m trying to figure it out. :-)

    Good intro to the book. I read it in late 1982 or early 1983, when I was 17 years old. I remember liking it a lot, although some of my favorite writers at that time (Harlan Ellison and Philip K. Dick) hated it. I recently got my hands on another copy, and I intend to read it again when I have the time (ha!). Maybe if I am jailed or hospitalized I’ll have the time to read it all again. For now I am just picking it up from time to time, opening it to a random place, and reading a few pages.

    Thanks. I really hope you enjoy the book!! Is there a Norwegian translation? That would be great if you could read it in your language. But it looks like you do pretty well with English as well. Not surprised — Scandinavians are the smartest people in the world. :-)
