Toxic Voices
Satire and the fantastic, vital literary genres in the 1920s, are often thought to have fallen victim to the official adoption of socialist realism. Eric Laursen contends that these subversive genres did not just vanish or move underground. Instead, key strategies of each survive to sustain the villain of socialist realism. Laursen argues that the judgment of satire and the hesitation associated with the fantastic produce a narrative obsession with controlling the villain’s influence. In identifying a crucial connection between the questioning, subversive literature of the 1920s and the socialist realists, Laursen produces an insightful revision of Soviet literary history.

Soul of Paradise
The planet Caprin is called a man-made utopia because of the products it offers: Clones (animals that look like humans), Dream Drug, and Fantasy Scenarios. Tourists who visit the planet by the millions are not aware of the machinations behind the fulfillment of their lusts and fantasies, nor do they care. But after Alethea Banding's father dies under suspicious circumstances, she and her hired hand, Ivan, discover a secret among the dodecs -- the planet's native insect -- that reveals corruption of the most brutal nature.
