Canadian Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror: Bridging the Solitudes (Studies in Global Science Fiction), edited by Amy J. Ransom and Dominick Grace, Palgrave Macmillan, 2019. Cover art: Oxygen/Getty Image, info. palgrave.com.

Canadian Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror: Bridging the Solitudes exposes the limitations of the solitudes concept so often applied uncritically to the Canadian experience. This volume examines Canadian and Québécois literature of the fantastic across its genres—such as science fiction, fantasy, horror, indigenous futurism, and others—and considers how its interrogation of colonialism, nationalism, race, and gender works to bridge multiple solitudes. Utilizing a transnational lens, this volume reveals how the fantastic is ready-made for exploring, in non-literal terms, the complex and problematic nature of intercultural engagement.
