  Cherry Wilder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cherry Wilder (September 3, 1930 – March 14, 2002) was the pseudonym of science fiction and fantasy writer Cherry Barbara Grimm.
Wilder was born in Auckland, New Zealand in 1930 and spent much of her time in Australia and Germany.
Wilder published short fiction in various periodicals on three continents over a period of twenty-seven years, so it is understandably difficult to keep track of all of her writings.

I love the Little House on the Prairie book series by Laura Ingalls Wilder which are true stories about her and her families life during the pioneer days of the mid and late 1800's but Farmer Boy which is the third book in the series is actually about the childhood of Laura's husband Almanzo Wilder...

Details abound --the techniques for training a team of young oxen, the agony of a Saturday night bath, the myriad of delicious foods at the county fair, the unrest the "big boys" cause at school, the wisdom and guidance of parents.
Wilder writes in a simple, sparse style, one you might call "Hemingway for children." Hard to believe people had to live like this, just in order to have enough to eat.
Laura Ingalls Wilder's "Farmer Boy" is a departure from the rest of the famed "Little House" books in that it does not relate the story of her own family's hardscrabble existence on the western frontier, but instead tells the story of her husband's boyhood on his family's prosperous farm in upstate New York.

Cherry Wilder's story The Dancing Floor was featured in Gardner Dozois's Best New SF anthology for 1998.
It tells of an elderly woman, Dr Taya Schwartz, "a specialist in alien artefacts", who is sent with a team of archivists to investigate a new example of the vast artificial pavements that had inexplicably appeared in obscure areas of the solar system.
What comes across to me, on re-reading her short stories, is the clarity of her prose and the superb visual imagery, and, most particularly, the humane and compassionate views that seem to be the backbone of the stories.

Elizabeth Lynn, Cherry Wilder and of course Ursula Leguin were all early writers whose work still stands the test of time.
Lynn and Wilder are both a bit obscure as they were popular in a time when fantasy was not popular and when only works with elves dwarves and talismans acheived through quests were paid any attention for the most part.
Cherry Wilder and Elizabeth Lynn should both be investigated.

Wilder died while writing The Wanderer, but Reimann has competently finished it.
It ends not with a cliff-hanger but at a stopping point, thereby allowing for further stories set in Hylor by other hands--a prospect about which, provided those future writers keep the continuity within the parameters of classic fantasy, no fantasy reader is likely to complain.
