Amazing review for The Man of Middling Height published on Strange Horizons

A new comprehensive review for The Man of Middling Height got published yesterday on Strange Horizons by Kyle R. Garton, a professor of American literature who studies, teaches, and writes literature about religion, multiculturalism, and economics, among other topics.

Overall, this novel richly exploits science fiction’s great capacity to imagine the otherwise and denaturalize what seems inevitable and natural. The adventurous analogy between height and gender will surely provoke much discussion, and—hopefully!—controversy. This might be my own bias as an academic, but in addition to being a good read for any speculative fiction fan, I think this would be an especially excellent book to assign in a college course in literature or Gender Studies as a way of bringing feminist theory to life.

I have been waiting for such reviews since I wrote this book! It is comprehensive, detailed, captures all the nuances of the book, and published in one of the most important literary speculation fiction magazines!

Thank you Kyle, I loved every word!
