Contact seller5-star sellerFirst edition. Octavo, pp. [1-4] 5-287 [288], original blue cloth, spine stamped in dark blue. Important proto-feminist scientific romance. Burdekin's "best known novel examines a Nazi-dominated Europe 500 years hence through the eyes of the young German protagonist, who begins to understand that something is perhaps awry in a w…orld where women are breeding-animals and Hitler is deified . a writer of considerable interest. Her work is at times surreptitiously couched, and her message is too often found embedded in romance-fiction plotting, but Burdekin can now be seen as a figure of contemporary interest." - Clute and Nicholls (eds), The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction (1993), p. 175.
