LET’S BE FRANK

BY BRIAN W. ALDISS (1925- )

SCIENCE FICTION (GREAT BRITAIN) JUNE

Brian W. Aldiss began publishing science fiction in 1954 and quickly emerged as one of the field’s great innovators, stylists, and critics. We will be meeting him again and again as this series moves through the years.

I’ve always been tempted to write long headnotes for very short stories, but frankly, I’m not going to do it in this case. (MHG)

It’s always a pleasure to read a story that doesn’t fall into an easy classification.

This starts in the reign of England’s Henry VIII (very popular in his time but one of the least-admired English monarchs now) and is only partly finished at the present time. It keeps on going.

It is an impossible story scientifically speaking, but it makes a weird kind of sense with a socko last paragraph. And do take another look at the title when you’re done. (IA)
