Plants have played key roles in science fiction novels, graphic novels and film. John Wyndham\'s triffids, Algernon Blackwood\'s willows and Han Kang\'s sprouting woman are just a few examples. Plants surround us, sustain us, pique our imaginations and inhabit our metaphors - but in many ways they remain opaque. The scope of their alienation is as broad as their biodiversity. And yet, literary reflections of plant-life are driven, as are many threads of science fictional inquiry, by the concerns of today. Plants in Science Fiction is the first-ever collected volume on plants in science fiction, and its original essays argue that plant-life in SF is transforming our attitudes toward morality, politics, economics and cultural life at large - questioning and shifting our understandings of institutions, nations, borders and boundaries; erecting and dismantling new visions of utopian and dystopian futures.
