Thomas M. Disch (1940-2008), New Wave SF visionary, poet, anatomist of New York City and Minnesota, Gothic experimenter, critic, crank. Did a lot of different things. Sorely missed.

Notes are here for these books:

Other reading

  • Wikipedia - biography etc.
  • Schrödinger's Cake - comprehensive fan site by Matthew Davis (Internet Archive link, archived July 4, 2018)
  • Crowley, John (January 1, 2009). "Worldmaker: Remembering Thomas Disch". Boston Review. Accessed on January 24, 2025.
  • Auerbach, David (April 2, 2010). "The Prescient Science Fiction of Thomas M. Disch". The Millions. Accessed on January 24, 2025.
  • Yezzi, David (2008). "Thomas M., Meet Tom". Contemporary Poetry Review. Accessed on January 24, 2025.
  • Disch's long autobiographical essays in Something About the Author Autobiography Series, vol. 15, and Contemporary Authors Autobiography Series, vol. 4 (Gale), both of which are widely available from library reference desks: Something About... is aimed at children and Contemporary Authors is not, but Disch's pieces in both of them (written in the mid-1980s) are informative and drily funny. The former piece, "My Life as a Child", also appeared in the October and November 1992 issues of Amazing Stories.
