"Resistance and change often begin in art. Very often in our art, the art of words."
-Ursula K. Le Guin
When she began writing in the 1960s, Ursula K. Le Guin was as much of a literary outsider as one can be- a woman writing in a landscape dominated by men, a science fiction and fantasy author in an era that dismissed "genre" literature as unserious, and a westerner living far from fashionable East Coast publishing circles. The interviews collected here-spanning a remarkable forty years of productivity, and covering everything from her Berkeley childhood to Le Guin envisioning the end of capitalism-highlight that unique perspective, which conjured some of the most prescient and lasting books in modern literature.
Industry Reviews
"She was one of the giants. A gifted storyteller, dedicated to her art, she influenced a whole generation of writers who came after her, including me." --George R. R. Martin
"We can't call Ursula K. Le Guin back from the land of the unchanging stars, but happily she left us her multifaceted work, her hard-earned wisdom and her fundamental optimism. Her sane, smart, crafty, and lyrical voice is more necessary now than ever." --Margaret Atwood
"I learn more from her books at every stage of life than from any other writer: she bears rereading well." --Neil Gaiman
