American Library Association - Booklist Review:
Pulp fiction (named for the low-quality paper on which the stories were printed) blossomed in the early
twentieth century. Audiences (beaten down after WWI and the Great Depression) sought tales with strong
heroes, exciting adventures, and alien encounters. This entertaining program traces the golden years of
pulps, beginning in the 1920s, by highlighting numerous writers (including Erle Stanley Gardner and
Edgar Rice Burroughs who turned out hundreds of stories. In interviews, popular and prolific authors Ray
Bradbury and Frederik Pohl recall nominal pay, short deadlines, and insatiable demand for copy. Original
cover art featuring beautiful women, space creatures, and blazing weapons, as well as B-movie clips,
enhance the coverage. Facing competition from movies, paperback books, and television, the demand for
pulp fiction dwindled in the 1950s. However, many works have been recently reprinted for readers seeking
escapist fiction. Great fun for pop-culture and genre-fiction fans.
