The Queen of Space

"The Queen of Space" by Joseph Slotkin is a science fiction adventure set in the mid-20th century. This imaginative yarn spins the tale of Helen LaTour, a burlesque performer whose mesmerizing dance moves hold the secret to interdimensional travel. Her life takes a dizzying turn when she realizes her hip-shaking talents can bend time and space, leading her to seek help from psychiatrist Dr. Timothy J. Brown. However, her newfound abilities attract unwanted attention from her possessive boyfriend, Luigi, a shady criminal, and draw her into a collision course with figures from the past, including the gallant Launcelot. This zany story blends comedy and far-fetched ideas, with sparkling dialogue and inventive situations that touch upon themes of love, envy, and the price of stardom.
