Question

A contemporary science fiction story would most likely be set in the year.... 1900 or 2010 or 2070?

Answer 1

2010. Contemporary = current age.

Answer 2

Nope -- 2070.

To be more precise, "contemporary" means that the book was written in the modern day; the "science fiction" genre means it was written about the future. So, a contemporary sci-fi book was written in 2010 about the year 2070.

A very old sci-fi book might be written in the year 1900 about the year 2010.

Answer 3

Oh oh oh....you are right. I completely skipped the SciFi aspect!

Answer 4

depends on what was the year of the book written so I agree with KTKLOWN
