Book description
Suppose you could enter the mind of a beautiful woman; see what she
sees, feel what she feels, and control her completely Suppose you could
turn back the hands of your watch, and relive your life Suppose the
stories you wrote kept coming true Kate Wilhelm (1928 - ) Working name
of the US writer Katie Gertrude Meridith Wilhelm Knight, born in Ohio in
1928. She started publishing SF in 1956 with 'The Pint-Sized Genie' for
Fantastic, and continued for some time with relatively straightforward
genre stories; it was not until the late 1960s that she began to release
the mature stories which have made her reputation as one of the 20th
century's finest SF writers. She was married to noted author and critic
Damon Knight and together they have had a profound influence beyond
their writing, through the Milford Science Fiction Writers' Conference
and its offshoot, in which she was directly involved, the Clarion
Science Fiction Writers' Workshop. She won the Hugo Award for Best Novel
with Where Late the Sweet Birds Sang, and has won the Nebula Award three
times. Kate Wilhelm lives in Oregon, USA, and still hosts writing
workshops.
