Speculative Whiteness: Science Fiction and the Alt-Right by Jordan S. Carroll

informative fast-paced

4.0

This is an incisive, interesting read about the influences of the far right on science fiction, common tropes, and the way the far right read sci fi. It was a short work, and I read it in two sittings and it was just generally a really good read (and free, available on the publisher's website!). I found it a little difficult to read in places - I never want to see the word Faustian again - but it was a very informative and clearly well-researched piece.

It unfortunately dates itself in calling itself dated at the end 😅 but otherwise a super solid piece of work.
