Ursula Le Guin Has Earned a Rare Honor. Just Don't Call Her a Sci-Fi Writer. (NYT, paywalled)

Ursula Le Guin Has Earned a Rare Honor. Just Don't Call Her a Sci-Fi Writer.

Her 1899 house is shielded by pink, yellow and red roses. In the living room there is a volume of word puzzles on a table and the books Ms. Le Guin and her husband, Charles, a retired historian, are reading aloud at night ("Two Years Before the Mast" and the poetry of Theodore Roethke).

    I am so very glad Le Guin is getting the attention she deserves. Her work is amazing, and just got better and better over the years.

    Ms. Le Guin is 86. She says “what the hell” a lot.

    I love Le Guin. Left Hand of Darkness was a huge influence on me. Her short stories are also amazing.

    Le Guin is a mastermind!

    My respect and admiration for this woman just quadrupled after reading this article.
