Title Cover
The Dark Light Years, by Brian Aldiss (1964)
First contact as a mirror for our categories — the sort that decides who gets counted and who is rendered background noise. The physical facts of the utods are treated as a defect rather than a different way of being, and the story makes that misreading feel deliberate. The politics sit just under the surface, but they are hard to unsee.
