Archival Adventures: The Lotus Eaters by Stanley G. Weinbaum

Archival Adventures: The Lotus Eaters by Stanley G. Weinbaum

It's time for an adventure! This week we're heading to Venus to learn about intelligent plant life in a story by Stanley G. Weinbaum. "The Lotus Eaters" is the 13th story from author and sci-fi historian Sam Moskowitz’ list of sci-fi classics from his 1940 letter to the editor of Comet.

Join our community collections archivist, Anthony Wright de Hernandez, for a livestream on Twitch! Every week we explore and discuss materials from Special Collections and University Archives covering topics including university history, NASA pioneers, architecture, science fiction, cooking, LGBTQ+ history, Black history, urban legends, and more. Recordings of previous streams are available on the Libraries' Youtube page.
