2001: A Space Odyssey and the Failures of Imagination | Pages of my TBR

Описание: Welcome to the first video in my Pages of my TBR series. Today we're talking about 2001: A Space Odyssey by Arthur C. Clarke, and how the novel displays some brilliant moments of imagining the future, but also how it fails.

About me/the channel:
On this channel I talk about the craft of writing, the literature that matters to me, and I document the process of publishing my own books. I write speculative fiction with coming of age themes, in the various sub genres of fantasy and dystopia.

I believe in the power of good representation to impact people’s real lives, so it’s something I think about (and talk about) a lot. The topics and themes I tend to focus on are working class literature, queer literature, and feminist literature.
