![]() The following biography appears inside the cover of Essex House 0108 THE IMAGE OF THE BEAST, Farmer's first Essex House novel: PHILIP JOSE FARMER spurted on the scene in 1952 with THE LOVERS, considered to be the first science-fiction story to deal graphically and intelligently with sex. The resultant controversy has hovered about his work ever since. To date, he has written 20 books, primarily "biosexopsychic science-fiction stories," with an occasional foray into the waters of the mainstream. Early in 1969, Doubleday, who this year returned Farmer's classic FLESH to print, will publish Farmner's eagerly awaited LORD TYGER. In the offing too is a movie version of THE ALLEY GOD. Presently he is working on a second novel for Essex House, AND YOU, RED JUDGE, to be followwed by the continuation of THE IMAGE OF THE BEAST tentatively titled SKETCHES AMONG THE RUINS OF MY MIND. Last summer, Phil Farmer reaped the Hugo Award for Best short science-fiction novel of 1967 with his brilliant tour-de-force, RIDERS OF THE PURPLE WAGE, which appeared in Harlan Ellison's epochal DANGEROUS VISIONS anthology. The Farmers live in a modest home across the street from Beverly Hills. |
