About Book
Anderson as a science fiction writer is primarily concerned with scientific problems. These are flights into space, and anthropology, and ethics, not to mention physics, which is somehow present in all the science fiction works of the writer. Often Anderson draws his ideas from a story that, to his credit, he knows professionally deeply. Anderson's work is especially characterized by a fascination with myths and traditions of various peoples, and primarily Scandinavian. The list of awards received by Anderson speaks of the artistic level of the works of all these genres: he was awarded the Hugo Prize seven times, the Nebula Prize three times, and in 1978 he received the Gandalf Prize, or, as it is called officially, the John R Memorial Prize R. Tolkina. As the famous editor, writer and critic Damon Knight once remarked, “... among Anderson’s thinkers can be attributed to rationalists, and among writers - to romantics. Such a paradoxical combination was very fruitful. ”
