Apparently, she’s still not over the 2016 election results. “Marleen S. Barr, who received the Science Fiction Research Association Pilgrim Award for lifetime achieve¬ment in science-fiction criticism, teaches English at the City University of New York,” according to Academe magazine, which is published by the American Association of University Professors (AAUP). “Her latest book is the first single-authored Trump fiction anthology, When Trump Changed: The Feminist Science Fiction Justice League Quashes the Orange Outrage Pussy Grabber.”
If it’s anything like her other titles, it will be a wild read. As she herself puts it: “I describe confronting the systemic obstacles faced by academic women in my novels Oy Pioneer! and Oy Feminist Planets: A Fake Memoir. Sondra Lear, my protagonist, has flying sex with a vampire and marries her gray male cat, who turns into a Cary Grant clone; I did not share Sondra’s experiences.”
