Praise
“Rachel Pollack’s The Beatrix Gates is a marvelous example
of how sci-fi can remythologize the terms of common experience to
elucidate and give new and deeper meaning.”
—Lambda Book Report
“The Beatrix Gates is a stunning study in identity and
mutability. It can be read most easily as a story about transexualism or
simply a powerful examination of difference and its more positive
consequences, as well as a subtle investigation of exactly what makes
our identities.”
—Green Man Review
“One of the most gifted and sensitive fantasists working today.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Rachel Pollack is one of the most consistently interesting and
individual writers working in the fantasy and science fiction
slipstream. Here be magick, real people, alternative worlds, and a fully
mature creative consciousness.”
—Geoff Ryman, author of WAS
