GROVE, Frederick Philip

GROVE, Frederick Philip
(1897-1948)
   German-born Canadian writer, born Felix Paul Greve. His output included realistic novels, rural studies and the sf SATIRE Consider Her Ways (written 1913-23; 1947), which presents the notes of an amateurscientist in telepathic contact with three ants, members of an exploratory team from South America. Their comments on the nature of Man and human society are pointed, and the picture of ant society is remarkably detailed. The novel has never received due attention.
