C'est donc un courant récent avec Gaiman, Miéville, ou Swainston en tête de pont, qui n'hésite pas, dans sa démarche en tout cas, à "transcender" les genres, en mélangeant divers éléments "propres" à telle ou telle famille.The New Weird is a literary movement or literary genre presently in progress. The writers involved are mostly novelists who are considered to be parts of the science fiction or speculative fiction genres. Its most notable authors include Steven Cockayne, Neil Gaiman, M John Harrison, Thomas Ligotti, China Mieville, Alastair Reynolds, Justina Robson, and Steph Swainston.The core idea of the New Weird is that literature should transcend the genre in which it is written, and therefore it is not only acceptable but encouraged that a writer blur the borders between genres. Many New Weird writings contain elements of science fiction, fantasy, and horror.Critics of the New Weird note that the divisions of genre are built for a reason and that the traditional divisions of genre are based on which types of ideas work best together. Supporters speculate that the New Weird will follow the lead of Cyberpunk and become an important part of recent literary tradition.

Eh ben, je ne suis toujours pas prêt de les recevoir...Update on Conlan Press LAST UNICORN CD Audiobook & TWO HEARTS Collector's Edition HardcoverThe Good News: all vendor problems have been solved. The Bad News: all the art direction has to be completely redone to accommodate the different packaging and formats that have been chosen. Which is a lot of work, but it's now under way. The minute it is finished, and press/manufacturing time firmly scheduled, a firm release date will be announced here. We're getting much closer, and everything is looking more than worth the wait.
