One of those authors that I am vaguely suprised is out of print.
There are a few scholarly works available but the actual stories? No, They are maybe not simplistic enough to be comercial in the modern sf genre, But they won awards and acclaim in their day. Indeed, nowadays there is a James Tiptree
Perhaps instead the estate has no interest. There were after all no children. An argument maybe for changing copyright laws?

Just finished Star Songs of an Old Primate. Thoughtful, intelligent stories, but for me, they felt extremely dated. Feminism filtered through a filter of Jordan Peterson meets an American high school movie from the fifties. The stories were suffused with gender roles painted with the broadest brush

possible, jocks and nerds, alpha males and beta males, all cranked up to eleven. To this modern Swede it felt extremely alien and impossible to relate to. Caricatures. And advanced space missions manned with muscular guffawy jocks instead of with scientists. Very weird. Unfortunately these facets quite spoiled much of my enjoyment of the stories. Show Less
