First Edition
Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Angela Martin (illustrator). First Edition 2nd Printing. White Marks on Rear Cover; Light Creasing on Front, Rear Covers; Spine Lightly Chipped; Edges Lightly Soiled; Slight Yellowing Due to Age. In 1984 after two conferences organised by the Spinal Injuries Association, a group of spinal cord injured women came together for the purpose of compiling this book. The editorial group comprises: Lesley Broomhead; Lydia Cooke; Judy Crosby; Maggie Davis; Ann Duncan; Enid King; Diana Levett; Jenny Morris; Joanna Owen; Diane Pargetter; Patricia Pay; Sue Sharp; Anne Spooner; Rosalie Wilkins; Lucina Willan; Margaret Williams. SYNOPSIS: In Able Lives women with spinal injuries speak about the nitty-gritty of their daily lives, their hopes and concerns. They review experiences of injury and hospitalisation and describe the challenge of taking up the threads of life again. They discuss practical matters - housing, money and careers - as well as the more personal issues of pain, incontinence, relationships and motherhood. Written for themselves, for relatives and friends, this challenging collection is also aimed at doctors, social workers, and all those in the "caring professions". It will prove an eye-opener for that able-bodied society which further disables those with disabilities with its unthinking assumptions and conventional organisation of the environment. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.

Paperback: 7" x 4½". Condition: Very Good: Light signs of wear. Cover Art: Judith Clute (illustrator). 1985 Edition. © 1984: A collection of 5 short stories by Joanna Russ. 1st printing of 1985 edition. First British publication:- Contents: Souls / The Mystery Of The Young Gentleman / Bodies / What Did You Do During The Revolution, Grandma? / Everyday Depressions:- Synopsis: Five elegant stories from Hugo and Nebula award-winning author Joanna Russ, in the form of a history lesson to a child of the future. A mediaeval abbess defends her community against a Viking invasion; a young girl sails on a 19th-century clipper bound for America with a guardian who is not what 'he' seems; a time traveller disguises herself as a male god on an errand of mercy in a feudal past; an author evolves the plot of a Gothic romance between two women. The stories are as much about the nature of science fiction as they are about the imagined and fantastical worlds they describe. Joanna Russ once more draws on her talent for vivid characterisation to involve us in worlds not our own, exploring gender and power relationships in past and future to illuminate our own time. 'Souls', the first story in the collection, won the 1983 Hugo Award:- (original cost £1.95).

In it Russ explores the position of woman present and future, the role of the woman writer, and the nature of art itself. Haunting and evocative, this selection of works written over 25 years demonstrates the range of Russ's vision and confirms her standing as a writer of great gifts:- Review(s): "To call these stories feminist is not to reduce them. Their anger, their wit and their melancholy are applicable to any reader. They do not date. She lets no one off the hook. However hilarious, the pointed urgency of her anger can scathe" - John Clute, New York Times Book Review / "Often humorous, always breathtaking" - Women's Review Of Books / "SF still has its Mozarts (or at least its Cole Porters). Joanna Russ is one" - Baird Searles, Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine / "She is an impeccable stylist, a writer of great power and subtlety" - Washington Post:- (original cost £4.95).
