Description:
"The essays present a variety of definitions of, and problems in defining, 'the fantastic.' ... This collection is by no means a complete representation of authors of the fantastic, ... but it is an important addition to the growing body of scholarly work on a genre with a rich and varied history, and an inexhaustible appeal and relevance, no matter the age. From the introduction by Eric S. Rabkin, who gives an overview of the fantastic and explores what makes it popular today, to the 'About the Editors and Contributors' list at the back, this collection is a must for scholars and serious readers."
