Spanning thirty years, this volume collects six stories, one poem, and a WisCon Guest of Honor speech. In the richly ironic Warlords of Saturns Moons, first published in 1974, a cigar-puffing woman writes space-opera while the drama of real-life inner-city Detroit goes on around her; The Grammarians Five Daughters offers a playful explication of the uses of the parts of speech; A Ceremony of Discontent takes a humorous approach to a modern-day feminist problem; and Arnasons wise, earthy tales of hwarhath serve up new myths explaining the origins of the world and morality (among other things). The work in this collection entertains with its wit, delights with its precision and imagination, and challenges and provokes with its bluntness. "Ordinary People" offers a small, potent taste of the oeuvre of an important author of feminist sf.
