Actually, I'm glad this guy brought Delaney's book up, because I just purchased it, taking a chance that I remembered its mention a long long time ago here on net.motss. On the other hand, I wasn't SURE that this was the book, and given my aversion to SF in general, and the fact that the cover really didn't say much about its "orientation", I was afraid myself that I would have to wade through (shudder) pages of straight sex as well as SF writing! :-) Talk about being cheated out of $3.95! -- /Steve Dyer dyer@harvard.harvard.edu harvard!dyer
