Books by Olaf Stapledon
Found 2 books
1. Olaf Stapledon, Last and First Men, Star Maker . Who needs characters and plot when such a compelling mega-Hegelian take is on the table? His other novels are underrated as well.
2. Star Maker , by Olaf Stapledon. Read Stapleton if you fervently believe that British Hegelianism is the missing element in most science fiction. Yet this is probably my favorite science fiction novel of all time, who else can credibly skip over 20,000 years in a single breath? "Civilizations rose and fell, yet now we must move on," or something like that. Honorable mentions go to Stapledon’s Odd John and especially Sirius .
