Fleuve Noir Anticipation
Fleuve Noir Anticipation was a science fiction collection by Fleuve Noir, a French publishing company owned now by Editis, which encompassed 2001 novels published from 1951 to 1997. Intended for a broad audience, Anticipation was originally conceived to publish books addressing the rumored increase of technocracy in the French Fourth Republic; but later emphasized space opera and topics of popular interest.
The books exerted great influence on French science fiction and started the career of several noted French writers including Stefan Wul, Kurt Steiner, Louis Thirion, Doris and Jean-Louis Le May, Richard Bessière, Jimmy Guieu and B. R. Bruss.
