Ursula K Le Guin is an author you can not skip. Her work is too important, too human. I'm not always ready to read her, but when I do it's somewhat disruptive, changing my perspective on things.
I find this fascinating: both Ursula K Le Guin and Octavia E Butler touch the subject of language in their sci-fi novels, and how different types of language (telepathy or sensory languages, for instance) would not allow their characters to lie, as opposed to our human language, that allows us to lie easily and often.
Idk, that's my two cents with less than 4 hours sleep ๐
Ursula K. Le Guin's 'Steering The Craft' is both a creative writing manual, and a manifesto for the importance of good writing. It's as beautifully written as her fiction.

Finished reading Le Guinโs โThe Tellingโ last night. Beautifully and compellingly written, as always.
Probably due to current events, I couldnโt help but read it as a hopeful tale of community resistance against techno-religious fascism, and the importance of shared stories and symbols in that fight.

Se refiere #UrsulaKLeGuin a la #lectura como un medio para adquirir criterio propio, para parar โla corriente incesante, incoherente, confusa y chillona de los medios de comunicaciรณnโ.

Me encanta que mucha gente haya descubierto el anarquismo y hayan hecho su libro de cabecera "Los desposeรญdos" de #ursulakleguin.
No entiendo cรณmo tan poca gente del colectivo LGTBIAQ+ tenga (tengamos) como libro de cabecera "la mano izquierda de la oscuridad" que me parece una maravilla.

โAl vivir en un mundo en el que sรณlo se aprecian las ganancias, un mundo como una frontera siempre en expansiรณn que carece de valor propio, plenitud propia, uno se arriesga a perder el valor que tiene de sรญ mismoโ.

Der Kurzurlaub an der Ostsee neigt sich dem Ende. Auรer Strandwanderungen und Lesen stand nix auf dem Plan, nur Handy war dabei.
Hab tatsรคchlich dann heute Buch Nummer Vier ausgelesen und auch Die Geiรel des Himmels von Ursuka K. Le Guin hat mich gefesselt. Der Roman fing etwas beschaulich an, wurde dann aber immer finsterer, obwohl die Hauptfigur ultra gelassen blieb. Die Idee ist cool und ich bin beeindruckt, dass die Autorin daraus etwas so feinfรผhliges schuf.
Hatte der Anfang fรผr mich nicht versprochen.
Diesen Roman hรคtte ich ohne den Carcosa Verlag nie gelesen. Manchmal ist es ganz gut, blind zu vertrauen.

I'm reading *The Dispossessed* for the first time. Yeah, I know I'm late to the party...
It's a set of very weird worlds she's portraying in this book. I find the culture on Anarres revolting in it's insularity, and groupthink. At the same time the misogynism expressed by the people on Urras is just as disgusting.
It really isn't a clear cut ideal, any of them. Classic Le Guin making things more complex than you first imagine. She was good.
