Jewish Women Science Fiction Writers Create Future Females: Gender, Temporality—and Yentas, the fourth volume in Marleen S. Barr’s Future Females critical feminist science fiction anthology series, is the first essay collection devoted to Jewish women science fiction writers. The anthology forges new alliances across disciplinary boundaries—feminist theory, science fiction, and Jewish Studies—by forming a scholarly force, consisting of established critical voices and cutting-edge, fresh perspectives. Acknowledging the growing cultural popularity of science fiction, Barr’s goal is to showcase new vistas for exploring gender through Jewish women’s science fiction visions. It is time for Jewish women science fiction writers to receive the focused critical examination they deserve.
