LEE, Thomas

LEE, Thomas
(? -?)
   UK writer, active in the late 19th century, identified by Darko SUVIN in Victorian Science Fiction in the UK (1983) as a North London plasterer and publican. TL's sf novel, Falsivir's Travels: The Remarkable Adventures of John Falsivir, Seaman, at the North Pole and in the Interiorof the Earth (1886), is a HOLLOW-EARTH tale. The narrator discovers a race of giants oppressed by a race of normal-sized humans, along with other features that E.F. BLEILER has suggested mark the author's attempts to satirize the UK of the 19th century.
