Deeply committed to the Revolution, Rojas presents a stunning critique of the Cuban regime under Fidel Castro by inviting the comparison of Spiral\u2019s<\/em> fictional moral universe, one in which Che Guevara\u2019s principles of socialism are followed to the letter, with the brutal realities of everyday Cuba.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n “Introduced by beloved Cuban science fiction author Yoss as one of the foundational novels of the genre, Miguel Collazo\u2019s 1960s classic The Journey <\/em>is a mind-opening parable of social progress, prophets and reluctant masses, and humanity\u2019s metaphysical voyage inward.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n COLLECTIONS<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n “First published in France in the dark year of 1942, the story collection Waystations of the Deep Night<\/em> remains the best known of Marcel Brion\u2019s numerous works in the vein of the strange and the fantastic. The journeys in this volume carry the reader through the surreal vistas of an underground city that appears aboveground as a bizarre theater of facades and a fire-ravaged landscape where souls turn to ash. By playing with the format of the ghost story or horror tale, Brion transforms the romantic waystations in this volume into stages on an inward journey into lucid dreams and no less lucid nightmares.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SHORT STORIES “Three Stories Conjured from Nothing” by ShakeSpace, translated from the Chinese by Andy Dudak (Clarkesworld, July 1). “The Curtain Falls, the Show Must End” by Julie Nov\u00e1kov\u00e1, translated from the Czech by the author (Samovar, July 27). “Hummingbird” by Eisuke Aikawa, translated from the Japanese by<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.sfintranslation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/cw_166_350.jpg\")
