Patricia Anthony

Patricia Marie Anthony (March 29, 1947 – July 2, 2013) was an American author of science fiction and slipstream fiction. Anthony published her first science fiction novel in 1992 with ''Cold Allies'', about the arrival of extraterrestrials in the midst of a 21st-century Third World War. This was followed by ''Brother Termite'', ''Conscience of the Beagle'', ''The Happy Policeman'', ''Cradle of Splendor'', and ''God's Fires'', each of which combined science fiction plots with other genres in unconventional ways. Several of her short-fiction works were republished in the 1998 collection ''Eating Memories''. Provided by Wikipedia
