The Story Behind The Story

There have been a couple of blog posts over recent months about the book A Canticle for Leibowitz, a famous example of science fiction exploring religious themes.

IO9 recommended a piece in the New Yorker which fills in the context against which the book was written.

Andย Speculative Faith shared a review of the book by Michelle Wood.

Of related interest, a Florida minister has expressed an interest in converting robots to Christianity. I hope someone recommends to him my chapter on Robots, Rights, and Religionโ€ย inย Religion and Science Fiction!
