Recenzii
'BDSM in American Science Fiction and Fantasy is a pure pleasure. At once lightly written and theoretically informed, contemporary and historical, it will appeal to science fiction and fantasy fans, literary and cultural theorists, historians of popular culture, and any reader looking for fresh and enlivening approaches to the books, characters, and shows it discusses.'
- Karmen MacKendrick, Le Moyne College, USA, author of Counterpleasures
'This is an engagingly written and deeply engaged study of the surprisingly lengthy "love affair" between BDSM and American science fiction and fantasy. Whether re-reading relatively familiar material such as Delany's Triton or introducing new material such as Joss Whedon's recent Dollhouse series, Call's analyses are intriguing, enlightening, and always convincing. This is an important study that brings together two cultural practices BDSM and sf/f that were made for each other.'

Descriere
A history of the love affair between BDSM (Bondage/Discipline, Dominance/Submission, Sadism/Masochism) and science fiction and fantasy. Lewis Call explores representations of BDSM in the 1940s Wonder Woman comics, the pioneering prose of Samuel Delany and James Tiptree, and the television shows Battlestar Galactica, Buffy, Angel and Dollhouse.
These sympathetic yet subversive representations encourage audiences to view BDSM as an ethical sexuality, while simultaneously permitting BDSM to retain its transgressive identity. This book explores representations of BDSM in the Wonder Woman comics of the 1940s, in the novels and short stories that Samuel Delany and James Tiptree wrote between the 1960s and 1980s, and in the television shows of the 1990s and 2000s: Buffy, Angel, Battlestar Galactica and Dollhouse.
