Description

Anfang 1968 taucht ein gewisser James Tiptree Jr. in der amerikanischen Science-Fiction-Szene auf, ein rasanter Aufstieg soll folgen.
Seine Storys sind straff und energiegeladen. In "Geburt eines Handlungsreisenden" werden wir in einem atemberaubenden Tempo mit den Nöten eines intergalaktischen Verwaltungsbeamten vertraut gemacht. In "Mama kommt nach Hause" und der Fortsetzung "Hilfe" wird uns ein exklusiver Einblick in einen kleinen Laden der CIA gewährt, der zufällig in den Erstkontakt mit Außerirdischen gerät. Naturgemäß stößt das dortige Team auf unerwartete Schwierigkeiten. Auf spielerische Kapriolen folgen auch andere, düstere Töne.
In der titelgebenden Kurzgeschichte "Doktor Ains letzter Flug" unternimmt der Protagonist drastische Maßnahmen, um die Erde zu retten.
Dieses frühe, aber komplexe Werk, das dem Leser unerwartete Abgründe eröffnet, wird der Durchbruch sein. Ab jetzt ist der Name Tiptree in aller Munde.
