Wilson, Peter Lamborn
Entry updated 12 September 2022. Tagged: Author, Editor.
(1945-2022) US anarchist author and poet who also wrote as by Hakim or (for political essays) Hakim Bey. He was controversial for occasional defences of paedophilia; his first novel of genre interest, Crowstone (1983) as by Hakim, is described on the cover as "A sword and sorcery boy-love tale" (see Sword and Sorcery). As Wilson he wrote some short sf for Interzone, Back Brain Recluse and other venues, and most importantly co-edited the Original Anthology Semiotext(e) SF (anth 1989) with Rudy Rucker and Robert Anton Wilson. False Documents (coll 2014) is a sequence of fictions somewhat in the manner of Jorge Luis Borges or Vladimir Nabokov, each taking the form of a document of varying reliability. [DRL]
