Slipstream fiction - bibliography;
Bruce Sterling's original essay coining the term (and list of representative novels).These are books which [science fiction] readers recommend to
friends: "This isn't SF, but it sure ain't mainstream
and I think you might like it, okay?" It's every man
his own marketer, when it comes to slipstream. John Clute prefers the term "Fabulist," which sounds more like the known "Magic Realism," whereas I believe Sterling was really thinking his way around an unidentified genre.
