Synopsis
This is a new collection of seven French proto-science fiction stories devoted to explorations of the future, as imagined in the 1850s and early 1900s, translated and annotated by renowned science fiction writer and scholar Brian Stableford. This collection includes fantastic explorations of Future Paris by Th ophile Gautier, Ars ne Houssaye, Victor Fournel as well as Alfred Franklin's visionary The Ruins of Paris in 4875 (1875), Maurice Spronck's devastating criticism of socialist utopianism, Year 330 of the Republic (1894), and Jean Jullien's An Investigation of the World of the Future (1909), in which a reporter interviews scientists whose discoveries are in the process of laying the foundations for the transformation of human society.

    Judging from my experience I fully recognize the 100% score attributed to this seller. The ordered books came neatly wrapped and in the condition described/depictured. Communication about the shipping process was impeccable and the shipping time was much shorter than the time estimated. The only downside are the above average costs of shipping but that can't be helped, Overall: excellent! Thanks from a happy customer.

    This is my second purchase from this seller and I have been nothing but pleased. First of all if you order more than one item (paperback books in my case) the seller insures you are paying shipping for a single package (if they all fit in a single package of course). Better yet, the books arrived well packaged, as described and in individual protective bags with card stock as backing. Materials arrived before the expected date (I saw somewhere). Both books were in great condition! Great value!

    Quick shipping. Packaging was solid. Sandwiched between cardboard pieces and packaged in a padded envelope. The book was even better than described. Great value for what was spent.
