Description

Ever wonder what happened to the rest of the tea party when the saucers went off into space? Here's your chance to find out! What would it be like to go to a club where you could buy an injection of sexiness? To grow up in a world where you didn't know what gender you would be until puberty -- and the discovery could be painful? To find yourself and your secret pitted against the entire United States government? The James Tiptree, Jr. Award has been recognizing science fiction and fantasy novels and stories that explore and expand gender since 1992. Although the award itself is given to one or two works of fiction a year, each jury also produces an "honor list" of notable works that were considered for the award. This anthology contains almost all of the short fiction that either won or was honored in the first five years of the award.
