He described himself as a political conservative and an anti-communist.  \nAs an illustrator, Roberts did much to change the appearance of UK science ﬁction magazines, notably Science Fantasy, for which he designed all but seven of the covers from January 1965 until its demise in February 1967; and also New Worlds for a period in 1966. His boldly expressionist covers, line-oriented, paralleled the shift in content of these magazines away from genre science ﬁction and fantasy towards a more free-form, speculative kind of ﬁction. He later did covers and interior illustrations for the book editions of New Worlds Quarterly edited by Michael Moorcock, for some of whose novels he designed covers. Roberts also illustrated several of his own 1980s titles, and published three works of nonﬁction: The Natural History of the P. H., Irish Encounters: A Short Travel and Lemady: Episodes of a Writer’s Life.  \nAfter working as an illustrator and cartoon animator, he began publishing science with “Anita” and “Escapism” in the September/October 1964 issue of Science Fantasy. Several of his early stories were written using the pseudonym Alistair Bevan. His second novel, Pavane, which is a collection of linked stories, may be his most famous work: an alternate history novel in which the Catholic  \nChurch takes control of England following the assassination of Queen Elizabeth I.  \nKeith Roberts was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1990, and died of its complications on October 5, 2000 in Salisbury, Wiltshire, U.K.  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nCollected Short Fiction  \nKeith Roberts  \n(custom book cover)  \nJerry eBooks  \nTitle Page  \nAbout Keith Roberts  \nBibliography: Novels  \nBibliography: Serials  \nBibliography: Chapbooks  \nBibliography: Collections  \nBibliography: Omnibus  \nBibliography: Nonﬁction  \nShort Fiction Bibliography: chronological  \nShort Fiction Bibliography: alphabetical  \nFiction Series  \n1964  \nAnita  \nEscapism  \nThe Charm  \nThe Madman  \n1965  \nManipulation  \nBoulter’s Canaries  \nHard Eight  \nSub-lim  \nAcclimatization  \nThe Inner Wheel  \nFlight of Fancy  \nThe Typewriter  \nThe Jennifer  \nThe Flowers of the Valley  \nThe War at Foxhanger  \nSusan  \nThe Middle Earth  \nDeterrent  \nThe Furies (the ﬁrst of three parts) The Door  \nIdiot’s Lantern  \nThe Furies (The second of three parts) The Furies (The Third of Three Parts)  \n1966  \nThe Deeps  \nManscarer  \nSynth  \nSurvey of the Third Planet  \nPavane: The Signaller  \nPavane: The Lady Anne  \nBrother John  \nThe Place that Kills  \nThe Worlds that Were  \nPavane: Lords & Ladies  \nPavane: Corfe Gate  \nThe Scarlet Lady  \nTimothy  \nBreakdown  \nThe Simple for Love  \nThe Familiar  \nPavane: The White Boat  \n1967  \nCoranda  \nThe Eastern Windows  \n1969  \nThe Therapy 2000  \n1970  \nThe Witch  \nOutpatient  \nCousin Ella Mae  \nSandpiper  \nJunior Partner  \nThe Mayday  \nThe Death of Libby Maynard  \nThe Everything Man  \nThe Mayday (US version)  \nJunior Partner (US version)  \n1971  \nThe God House  \nThe Wreck of the “Kissing Bitch”Monkey and Pru and Sal  \n1972  \nI Lose Medea  \nThe Grain Kings  \nWeihnachtabend  \nThe Passing of the Dragons  \n1973  \nThe Trustie Tree  \nEverything in the Garden  \nThe Snake Princess  \nThe Beautiful One  \nThe Lake of Tuonela  \n1974  \nRand, Rat and the Dancing Man  \nUsk the Jokeman  \nThe Sun Over a Low Hill  \nFragments  \nWinterwood  \n1975  \nThe Ministry of Children  \n1976  \nMissa Privata  \n1977  \nThe Big Fans  \nMolly Zero  \n1978  \nAriadne Potts  \nThe Shack at Great Cross Halt  \n1979  \nOur Lady of Desperation  \n1980  \nThe Lordly Ones  \nThe C","cbCaifjIUt7qe5mD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifjIUt7qe5mD","pdf",21388324,4417,"English","# About Keith Roberts\n## Bibliography: Novels\n## Bibliography: Serials\n## Bibliography: Chapbooks\n## Bibliography: Collections\n## Bibliography: Omnibus\n## Bibliography: Nonfiction\n## Short Fiction Bibliography: chronological\n## Short Fiction Bibliography: alphabetical\n# Fiction Series","[{\"question\":\"Who was Keith Roberts?\",\"answer\":\"Keith John Kingston Roberts was a British illustrator and cartoon animator who later became a science fiction author.
