Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

Ammonite is science fiction novel by British-American author Nicola Griffith. Its also Griffith’s debut novel, which was published in 1992. American sci-fi author Ursula Le Guin cited Ammonite as "a knock-out first novel, with strong, likeable characters, a compelling story, and a very interesting take on gender". Critically acclaimed and academically praised, the novel won several literary awards, including the Lambda Literary Award for LGBT themed science fiction/fantasy, and the Otherwise Award, formerly known as the James Tiptree Jr. Award, for science fiction or fantasy that explores or expands our understanding of gender. In 2008, the Italian translation of Ammonite was awarded the Premio Italia award, an Italian literary prize for astounding works in science fiction and fantasy. The novel was also shortlisted for the Arthur C. Clarke Award, the British Science Fiction Award, and the Locus Award for a debut novel. In September 2012 Ammonite was included in the SF Masterworks relaunch series of softcover editions (2010–present). The series is composed of classic science fiction literature that is deemed important and considered deserving of being in continuous print.
