THE FANTASTIC MUSE by Arthur C. Clarke. The prophet of science and SF is shown to be prophetic also in his views on the need for a poetry of science fiction. To mark Clarke’s 75th birthday, this seminal article - the earliest know essay on SF poetry - is reprinted for the first time since its original publication in 1938, together with a haunting poem of his own from the following year, The Twilight of the Sun.
