Gollancz Classic SF #17:- Synopsis: They called it Babel-17, this mind-twisting, multi-dimensional language - and it frightened Rydra Wong. For Babel-17 was not just a system of words, Babel-17 was a whole new way of thinking. Lightning-swift and horrifyingly effective, it was the Invader's subtlest weapon, clawing constantly at the Alliance's Imperial outposts. Only Captain Wong could comprehend it , but could even she, the Alliance's most brilliant poet, hope to control the corrupting power of its words?:- Review(s): "Dazzlingly flamboyant yet strangely moving, 'Babel-17' is Samuel Delany at his most inventive and exhilarating" / "Samuel R Delany is the best science fiction writer in the world" - Algis Budrys / "Flares with discords and undertones" - J G Ballard, Guardian / "Bizarre and imaginative" - Sunday Times / "Genius is perhaps the only fitting comment to be made on Samuel R Delany" - Eastern Daily Press / "Hits you like a magnesium flare at midnight" - Tribune:- (original cost £3.95).
