Synopsis "Ursula k. Le Guin: Conversations on Writing"

When the New York Times referred to Ursula K. Le Guin as America's greatest writer of science fiction, they just might have undersold her legacy. It's hard to look at her vast body of work?novels and stories across multiple genres, poems, translations, essays, speeches, and criticism?and see anything but one of our greatest writers, period. In a series of interviews with David Naimon (Between the Covers), Le Guin discusses craft, aesthetics, and philosophy in her fiction, poetry, and nonfiction respectively. The discussions provide ample advice and guidance for writers of every level, but also give Le Guin a chance to to sound off on some of her favorite subjects: the genre wars, the patriarchy, the natural world, and what, in her opinion, makes for great writing. With excerpts from her own books and those that she looked to for inspiration, this volume is a treat for Le Guin's longtime readers, a perfect introduction for those first approaching her writing, and a tribute to her incredible life and work.

Ursula Kroeber Le Guin (1929 - 2018) cultivó tanto la narrativa, en forma de novela y cuento, como la poesía y la crítica. Su amplia obra ha merecido múltiples galardones, entre los que destacan el National Book Award, el American Book Award y numerosos premios Hugo, Nebula, Jupiter y Locus.

En 1991 recibió el Harold D. Vursell Memorial Award, otorgado por la American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, y en 2001, el SF Hall of Fame a toda su trayectoria. En el otro viento, la última novela de Terramar incluida en el volumen Historias de Terramar, recibió en 2002 el Premio World Fantasy. En 2003 fue elegida Gran Maestro por la SFWA, la asociación norteamericana de escritores de ciencia ficción.

Ella misma se describía como una persona «feminista, conservacionista, ecologista, norteamericana, apasionadamente comprometida con la literatura, paisaje y vida de la Costa Oeste».

" La edición es pequeña pero fantástica. Es minimalista, tapa dura y la firma azul de la portada es metalizada. La calidad del papel es excelente y está muy bien maquetado, tiene muchas hojas en negro con letras blancas para mostrar fragmentos de otros libros. Aún no lo leo pero todo lo que escribe Ursula es un deleite. "
