David G. Hartwell, Kathryn Cramer - Year's Best Fantasy (2001-2009)

 

Huvitav meeldetuletus nullindate (angloameerika) fantaasiakirjandusest - siin on klassikuid kaugetest aegadest (ikka veel!), siin on nüüdseks hääbuvaid või ununenud klassikuid, siin on praeguseid klassikuid, siin on nüüdseks oluliseid autoreid, kes on nullindatel hakkasid tähelepanu koguma. Ja muidugi väga palju autoreid, kellest pole enne midagi kuulnud ning pole hiljemgi muudes kogumikes kohanud (aga millised autoritutvustused neid saadavad, eksole). Kuskilt olen kuulnud, et Hartwelli ja Crameri valikuid iseloomustab pigem klassikalisem lähenemine ulmekirjandusele, seega siin just väga ei ole vandermeerlikke või strahanlikke teravamaid valikuid. Ja ikka see vana nutulaul - kuidas küll praeguseks kümnendiks on sellised antoloogiasarjad pea täielikult välja surnud.
