New Writings in SF 1

Finished reading (aloud to my spouse) "New Writings in SF 1" edited by John Carnell. Published 1964.

First in a series of anthologies exploring and encouraging the growth of SF from simple genre writing into more literary avenues. This growth became known as the "New Wave" SFF of the 60s and 70s.

Was particularly impressed by the last story, "The Sea's Furthest End" by Damien Broderick.

Worth reading for both its historical perspective and on its own merits.

It's the solstice tonight, and a good time to reflect on my favourite books from the past year.

I'm making very little attempt to rank these titles. They're simply the books that I enjoyed most, and they're presented in the order I read them. • "The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet," by Becky Chambers (2014) • "The Galaxy, and the Ground Within," by Becky Chambers (2021) • "Locklands," by Robert Jackson Bennett (2022) • "Beloved," by Toni Morrison (1987) • "Exhalation," by Ted Chiang (2019) • "Fugitive Telemetry," by Martha Wells (2021) • "Becoming Kin: An Indigenous Call to Unforgetting the Past and Reimagining Our Future," by Patty Krawec (2022) • "The Vanished Birds," by Simon Jimenez (2020) • "The Netanyahus: An Account of a Minor and Ultimately Even Negligible Episode in the History of a Very Famous Family," by Joshua Cohen (2021) • "Utopia Avenue," by by David Mitchell (2020) • "The Calcutta Chromosome: A Novel of Fevers, Delirium & Discovery," by Amitav Ghosh (1995) • "Moon of the Crusted Snow," by Waubgeshig Rice (2018) • "Bea Wolf," by Zach Weinersmith; illustrated by Boulet (2023) • "Fighting the Moon," by Julie McGalliard (2021) • "The Empress of Salt and Fortune," by Nghi Vo (2020) • "The Glass Hotel," by Emily St. John Mandel (2020) • "New York 2140," by Kim Stanley Robinson (2017) • "When the Tiger Came Down the Mountain," by Nghi Vo (2020) • "The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl Omnibus," by Ryan North et al; illustrated by Erica Henderson & Derek Charm & Jacob Chabot & Naomi Franquiz & Tom Fowler & Rico Renzi et al (2022) • "Buffalo Is the New Buffalo: Stories," by Chelsea Vowel (2022) • "Greenwood: A Novel," by Michael Christie (2019) • "The House of Rust," by Khadija Abdalla Bajaber (2021) • "Children of Memory," by Adrian Tchaikovsky (2022) • "Jade Legacy," by Fonda Lee (2021) • "A Deadly Education: A Novel: Lesson One of the Scholomance," by Naomi Novik (2020) • "The Last Graduate: A Novel: Lesson Two of the Scholomance," by Naomi Novik (2021) • "The Golden Enclaves: Lesson Three of the Scholomance," by Naomi Novik (2022) • "To Be Taught if Fortunate," by Becky Chambers (2019) • "Helgoland: Making Sense of the Quantum Revolution," by Carlo Rovelli (2020), translated by Erica Segre & Simon Carnell (2021) • "A Psalm for the Wild-Built," by Becky Chambers (2021) Ah, but I said I'd make "very little attempt" to rank them, not "no attempt." So here is that attempt: my favourite five books from the last solar orbit — the five I enjoyed even more than those other thirty — also presented in the order I read them.

• "Nona the Ninth," by Tamsyn Muir (2022) • "Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands," by Kate Beaton (2022) • "Record of a Spaceborn Few," by Becky Chambers (2018) • "Briar Rose," by Jane Yolen (1992) • "Babel, or, The Necessity of Violence: An Arcane History of the Oxford Translators' Revolution," by R.F. Kuang (2022)

[if-you-fan-a-fire]

"3 ESCAPE TOMBS," New York Daily News. September 4, 1933. Page 1, 3 & 4. ---- 3 Flee Tombs On Sheet-Rope, Elude Manhunt --- Three youthful prisoners awaiting trial in Tombs Prison slipped into an unused annex yesterday afternoon, forced open a skylight and at 1:37 o'clock slid fifty feet down an improvised rope into Leonard St.

They were still at liberty late last night, despite a police chase and a three-hour search, during which 100 patrolmen and detectives ransacked every square foot of an entire block in which the fugitives were believed to be hiding.

It was the first successful break from the 31-year-old prison in more than a decade. Three prisoners killed the warden, a keeper and them- selves in a memorable at tempt to escape in 1926.

The three who got away yesterday were Henry Simons, 20, of 241 W. 101st St.. held for burglary; Gerard 20, 320 E 108th St. robbery suspect; and John M. Nally. 18, 102 W. 40th St.. arrested for carrying a gun. Despite their youth, all had police records. With a score of other prisoners they had been allowed to exercise in the recreation room of the prison during the noon hour.

While the antics of the others occupied the attention of the guards, Simons, Simonson and McNally slipped into a corridor and made their way to the former women's annex on the Leonard St. side of the prison.

The door, unused for two years, had been tightly nailed, but the prisoners pried it open. Then they climbed up the cables of a dumb waiter until they could reach a skylight. This also was nailed, but they managed to pry it loose.

Once on the roof, the trio had to act quickly. From around their bodies they uncoiled three lengths of an ingenious rope which they had made from strips of bedsheets tightly wrapped around wire pulled from bedsprings.

They tied the three sections together, making a single strand which, when one end was tied to the ledge of the building, reached to within a few feet of the side-walk below.

Not a single pedestrian was insight in Leonard St. as they slid ddown the rope and dropped to the ground. Walking fast, they turned the corner into Centre St. and haled a taxicab at Centre and Franklin St. It was here that Patrolman George Carroll entered the scene. He was stationed in Centre St. ona fixed post established shortly after the last outbreak. He wondered why the three men were in such a hurry and strolled around the corner to investigate.

As soon as he saw the rope, Carnell realized what had happened. He hailed a police radio car driven by Patrolman John Possidento and pursued the green taxi in which he had seen the three drive off.

With the police car close behind, the taxi went north on Centre St. turned east into Walker St., then into Canal and east on Canal to Mulberry. Here it stopped when the driver deliberately stalled his engine.

Flee Down Mulberry. The fugitives leaped out, using both doors, and raced down Mulberry St. with three policemen at their heels. Two of the patrolmen were on the running beard of a pursuing automobile. The third, Patrolman Walter O'Neill, of Traffic B, was on foot. All had their revolvers drawn but all withheld their fire because the street was crowded with children.

John Morello, of 35 Norfolk St. sipping beer in the Dell Leone Restaurant at 91 Mulberry St., ran to the door with the proprietor just as one of the fugitives made as though to enter the place. The fugitive changed his mind and raced up the adjoining staircase in the same building. The other two ran to Mulberry St, and apparently there. These were described by Morello as a tall man, with dark hair and a dark complexion wearing a gray suit, and a short man in a blue suit.

Surround Fugitives. Reserves from the Elizabeth Street, Clinton Street and Oak Street stations, two emergency squads and fifty detectives soon threw a cordon around the block bounded by Mulberry, Canal, Bayard and Baxter Sts. Then began a search that brought thousands of spectators to view the excitement.

Every room, cellar, attic and room in the block was combed by police armed with machine guns and automatic rifles. Two men, found half-dressed in bed, were taken in custody but prison authorities said they were not the fugitives.

At 4 o'clock the police abandoned ther efforts, convinced the men have made a getaway through their lines.

The taxi driver, Arthur Feinstein of 1369 67th St., Brooklyn, said he had been told to drive to 47th St, and Third Ave., Brooklyn. As soon as his passengers realized they were being followed, he said, they ordered him to change his course. Suspecting trouble, stopped the car and they fled.

Whether any of the prison guards would be disciplined because of the escape was undecided last evening as Warden Barr conferred with city officials.

Police records showed Simons was first arrested in September, 1931, on a burglary charge and received a suspended sentence. Arrested another burglary charge last June, he pleaded guilty and was awaiting sentence.

McNally was sent to Elmira in 1929 on an assault charge. In 1931 he was discharged on a gun charge, but had been picked up again with a gun last June and was awaiting trial.

Simonson also went to Elmira in 1925 when a burglary charge was reduced to unlawful entry. He was arrested last June for robbery.

The escape in 1926 was the most sensational in a long history of collective and individual out-breaks since the original Tombs, a replica of one of the tombs of ancient Egypt, was built in 1840.

Six members of the mob of red-haired Mike McKenna were in the plot. Early in the afternoon of Nov. 3 they pleaded illness and asked to be taken to the medical office.

Three of them. McKenna, Hyman Amberg and Robert Berg, were escorted from the cells to the office, which was only about twenty feet from the main gate. As they neared the exit, the three whipped out pistols and made a dash toward the gate keeper.

Warden Killed. He foiled them by turning the huge steel key in the lock, dropping it in his pocket and running toward them. Just then Warden Peter J. Mallen rushed from his office. He drew the prisoners' fire and the keeper escaped. Mallen was killed.

Then began a siege in the prison yard that lasted for half an hour. Keeper Jeremiah Murphy was fatally wounded in the interchange of bullets. Finally the cornered trio, their ammunition almost gone, killed themselves one by one as Johnny Broderick, the police department's most two-fisted hero, started across the prison yard to battle them single-handed.

As recently as last October the Tombs was turned into a veritable fort to foil a supposed plot to deliver Howard Reddy, gangster inmate. Machine guns were trained on Centre and Lafayette Sts., but nothing happened.
