<div><B>The first novel from the award-winning author of <I>Brightness Falls from the Air</I>, a writer &ldquo;known for gender-bending, boundary-pushing work&rdquo; (Tor.com).</B><BR />  <BR /><I>Up the Walls of the World</I> is the 1978 debut novel of Alice Sheldon, who had built her reputation with the acclaimed short stories she published under the name James Tiptree Jr. A singular representation of American science fiction in its prime, Tiptree&rsquo;s first novel expanded on the themes she addressed in her short fiction. &ldquo;From telepathy to cosmology, from densely conceived psychological narrative to the broadest of sense-of-wonder revelations, the novel is something of a tour de force&rdquo; (<I>The Science Fiction Encyclopedia</I>).<BR />  <BR /> Known as the Destroyer, a self-aware leviathan roams through space gobbling up star systems. In its path is the planet Tyree, populated by telepathic wind-dwelling aliens who are facing extinction. Meanwhile on Earth, people burdened with psi powers are part of a secret military experiment run by a drug-addicted doctor struggling with his own grief. These vulnerable humans soon become the target of the Tyrenni, whose only hope of survival is to take over their bodies and minds&mdash;an unspeakable crime in any other period of the aliens&rsquo; history . . .<BR />  <BR /><B>Praise for James Tiptree Jr.</B><BR />  <BR /> &ldquo;[Tiptree] can show you the human in the alien and the alien in the human and make both utterly real.&rdquo; &mdash;<I>The Washington Post</I><BR />  <BR /> &ldquo;Novels that deal with the mental gymnastics of superminds, or with concepts like eternity and infinity, are doomed to fall short of the mark. But Tiptree&rsquo;s misses are more exciting than the bulls&#8208;eyes of less ambitious authors.&rdquo; &mdash;<I>The New York Times</I></div>
