See I would put in the works of Julia Spencer-Fleming, all the SFR Brigader books :) So very much more.<br /><br />Ah well, alas it was 30+ years too late for most of us.Imogene Nixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08887971644334503814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2835785233541439590.post-641887053344669752012-06-24T04:51:55.254-07:002012-06-24T04:51:55.254-07:00Great blog post Jael!

Too many books to choose from, but I think maybe something old skool like Judith Krantz' Scruples or Shirley Conran's Lace or Colleen McCullough's ThornbirdsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2835785233541439590.post-51225970880884690982012-06-23T07:27:05.770-07:002012-06-23T07:27:05.770-07:00Fabulous post, Jael, and once more...welcome to th...Fabulous post, Jael, and once more...welcome to the Brigade!<br /><br />I'm a huge fan of Voyager I and II. We sometimes forget they're out there. Traveling for over 35 years and just now reaching the edge of our own solar system certainly puts some perspective on the enormous distances in space travel. It's really difficult to get your head around.<br /><br />I have no idea which ONE novel I'd send, but with the advent of digital publishing we could have sent a high capacity e-reader device with thousands of novels! I'd definitely include a few SFR. <br /><br />I wonder, though, if the being who intercepts them might mistake novels for non-fiction and wonder where all these other alien species are hiding? :)L.

I would say Pride and Prejudice is a good example of a book that encompasses all of human emotion, human relationships, etc. And to anyone who says, "oh that book will make us look too silly," why not take a good look around at this world and tell me that it's not true!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing. I myself, wouldn't mind having a close encounter of the Worf kind....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13513775558406795985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2835785233541439590.post-25249397116552489622012-06-22T23:53:04.669-07:002012-06-22T23:53:04.669-07:00Will be interested in following this up, science w...Will be interested in following this up, science wise.
