KAVENEY, Roz

KAVENEY, Roz
(1949-)
   UK critic, editor and writer. Her sf criticism, beginning in the late 1970s (before 1980 as by Andrew Kaveney), has appeared in specialist journals like FOUNDATION and in non-genre outlets like the Washington Post and Books and Bookmen; it is marked by a seemingly off-hand general erudition and a knowing sharpness about the field. Much of her non-sf writing has concentrated on issues like FEMINISM, gay rights and censorship. She began publishing sf with "A Lonely Impulse" in Temps: Volume One * (anth 1991), "devised by" Neil GAIMAN and Alex Stewart. Sheedited Tales from the Forbidden Planet (anth 1987) and More Tales from the Forbidden Planet (anth 1990) as well as three SHARED-WORLD anthologies:The Weerde * (anth 1992),Villains * (anth 1992) andThe Weerde: Book 2 (anth 1993), all with Mary GENTLE.
