The Science Fiction Abundance is a book of poetry that documents almost all corners of the science fiction genre. Science fiction allows for individuals to make the unfamiliar familiar. By this, it is meant that science fiction takes complex philosophical and existential ideas and places them in a story in a way where people can understand these ideas. Science fiction has the opportunity of placing the reader in a world that they could possibly live in someday, thus placing them in an unfamiliar world that has familiarity. This paradox creates cognitive dissonance, striking thought and fear into the reader's mind. Science fiction, in this work, is used as a warning for what could possibly happen in the future, what has happened in the past that is covered up, and what could possibly be happening in the present that we are not aware of. Poetry is used in this book to express these ideas due to the innate nature of poetry capturing the feelings and imaginations of those who read it. Poetry also involves meter and manipulation of words which, in itself, can reflect on many science fiction ideas creating an experience for the reader that is more than just a story.
