Bestiary Website
A Bestiary of Authors - Exhibition & Website
From Aldiss to Banks and beyond! To celebrate the shop’s 10th anniversary Madeleine Shepherd is exhibiting a selection of photos and prints of famous (and a few not quite so famous) authors she has photographed over the past ten years. The Exhibition will run until 1st September - Venue number 326!
And it’s also viewable on-line!
The website address is Bestiary of Authors, where a selection of the full exhibition is available for purchase!
To avoid having to pick an sf author, and because it’s a great picture, here’s Yann Martell posing beside a real (stuffed) tiger!
Transreal Fiction
Transreal Fiction is a shop dedicated to selling science fiction, fantasy & related books, together with a limited selection of other merchandise.But really, it’s about books. Transreal Fiction opened in April 1997. The owner, Mike Calder, first sold sf & f books many years ago and has worked in the business either part- or full-time since. For years he also had a respectable job as well, but that’s another story…
The shop is named after the term coined by Rudy Rucker to describe his fiction and I thought it an apt name for a shop specialising in speculative fiction. And, in case you’re wondering, yes, Rudy Rucker was happy to allow me to use of the term as a name for my shop.
This year’s Fringe Art Exhibition was called Alien Surfaces. There’s a link to more info at the top…
