Philip Jose Farmer
Philip José Farmer (1918–2009) was an influential American science fiction and fantasy writer known for his imaginative and often controversial works. He is best known for his "Riverworld" series, where historical figures are resurrected on an alien planet, and the "World of Tiers" series, which explores layered universes ruled by god-like beings. Farmer frequently explored themes of sexuality, religion, and the nature of humanity, often challenging genre conventions. His notable works include "To Your Scattered Bodies Go," which won a Hugo Award, and "The Lovers," a groundbreaking story that introduced mature themes into science fiction.
