Panshin, Cory
Entry updated 12 September 2022. Tagged: Author, Critic.
(1947- ) US author and critic, collaborator with her husband, Alexei Panshin (whom see for further details), since before 1975. With him she co-wrote the fantasy Earth Magic (April-September 1973 Fantastic as "The Son of Black Morca"; 1978) and the critical volumes SF in Dimension (coll 1976; exp 1980) and The World Beyond the Hill: Science Fiction and the Quest for Transcendence (1989), sharing a nonfiction Hugo with him for the last. Her interest in Sufism and other philosophies of transcendence suffuses, in particular, their joint criticism. [JC/DRL]
