The Lani People
Science fiction novel by (1916-1986) J. F. Bone, an American prose writer and professor of veterinary. “The Lani People” became his first novel, as well as the most outstanding of his works. It appears a durable example of conceptual overturn in science fiction: representatives of new space race, which possessed not only intellect, but also tails, are considered to be “of second quality” and deprived of any rights. The action takes place in the far future: a young veterinarian is hired to take care of these alien creatures. The novel is much about veterinarian work, what does not prevent touching ethics issues and discussion of humanness.
