More From Frederik Pohl

It had also been my belief since i started writing fiction that science fiction is never really about the future. when science fiction is old, you can only read it as being pretty much about the moment in which it was written. but it seemed to me that the toolkit that science fiction had given me when i started working had become the toolkit of a kind of literary naturalism that could be applied to an inherently incredible present.
Writing Belief Kind
I think it's very pretty. can it be pretty if no one thinks it's pretty? i think it's pretty. if you're the only one? that's pretty pretty. and what about the boys? don't you want them to think you're pretty? i wouldn't want a boy to think i was pretty unless he was the kind of boy who thought i was pretty.

I went to a catholic university and there's something about being a catholic-american. you know, st. patrick's day is, i'm irish-catholic. there's alcoholism in my family. it's like i've got to be catholic, right?

I am catholic, i was raised catholic, i am a practicing catholic. but i say we need to agree to disagree. we have a shared mission around poverty, and i focus on that, because we do a lot with the catholic church around poverty alleviation. i'm always looking for: what is the common thread? what do we care about? what do we believe in? we believe in women around the world. we believe in all lives have equal value.
Believe Common Threads Focus
I am catholic but i want to say something to the catholics. thank you for some of the bishops who live in rural areas, and are still catholic. these bishops of the catholic churches still pray for the poor, and pray for their president who works for the poor, while the leaders of the catholic church only defend oligarchy.

I would say that most of my books are contemporary realistic fiction... a couple, maybe three, fall into the 'historic fiction' category. science fiction is not a favorite genre of mine, though i have greatly enjoyed some of the work of ursula leguin. i haven't read much science fiction so i don't know other sci-fi authors.
