Tales of Neveryon,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A novel of myth and literacy about a longago land on the brink of civilization. Vol 1In his fourvolume series Return to Nevron, Hugo and Nebula awardwinner Samuel R. Delany appropriated the conceits of swordandsorcery fantasy to explore his characteristic themes of language, power, gender, and the nature of civilization. Wesleyan University Press has reissued the longunavailable Nevronvolumes in trade paperback.The eleven stories, novellas, and novels in Return to Nevron's four volumes chronicle a longago land on civilization's brink, perhaps in Asia or Africa, or even on the Mediterranean. Taken slave in childhood, Gorgik gains his freedom, leads a slave revolt, and becomes a minister of state, finally abolishing slavery. Ironically, however, he is sexually aroused by the iron slave collars of servitude. Does this contaminate his mission or intensify it? Presumably elaborated from an ancient text of unknown geographical origin, the stories are sunk in translators' and commentators' introductions and appendices, forming a richly comic frame.
