SANDERS, Scott Russell

SANDERS, Scott Russell
(1945-)
   US writer who began publishing sf with "Touch the Earth" for Edges (anth 1980) ed Ursula K. LE GUIN. His first novel, Terrarium (1985), is set in a future USA whose human population has retreated from the polluted world into domed CITIES; the tale neatly expresses some late-20th-century guilts and their redemption, for the few humans who leave the domes find a rejuvenated Nature outdoors (ECOLOGY). The Engineer of Beasts (1988), a juvenile, is concerned with GENETICENGINEERING. The Invisible Company (1989) examines the cost of maintaining a colony of immortals in a place called Paradise Island, to which the protagonist is ominously called.
