“Fictions are not make-believe. We have come to understand this better through the medium of sci-fi, as so much of what begins as a futuristic fantasy becomes an ordinary part of the world we know. Fiction is much more than social-realist cut-outs of contemporary life. More than representation. Fiction declares and debates inner realities that gradually press forward into our outer circumstances. We catch up with our dreams.” — Jeanette Winterson

Fiction is much more than social-realist cut-outs of contemporary life. More than representation. Fiction declares and debates inner realities that gradually press forward into our outer circumstances. We catch up with our dreams.
