Postcolonial science fiction reimagines the future in light of the experiences of those who survived oppression and colonisation. Australian Aboriginal fiction writers offer a contribution to this genre. This study, the first of its kind, analyses selected texts as examples of postcolonial science fiction that construct alternative future worlds.
