... The story "A Man of the People" in *Four Ways to Forgiveness* is partially set on Hain and provides some interesting anthropological detail. "Another...
There are some brief sketches of life on Hain in the story "Old Music and the Slave Women" from "The Birthday of the World and Other Stories". Old Music,...

Hi folks. I just found this group as I was looking through ursulakleguin.com, and figured I'd introduce myself. Big, giant, huge, fan of Le Guin's stuff,...
Hello fellows, I am currently in search for some serious articles about Ursula K. Le Guin and the genres of her writing for a paper I am writing on the ...
That's amazing. Best interview comments by Le Guin that I've ever seen. I shall certainly quote this in the future when asked about Le Guin's taoism: she...
Hey everybody! I just got a notice from the Appalachian poetry magazine Sow's Ear today. I didn't win their annual poetry competition (dang!) but I placed --...

Maya, thank-you so much for that wonderful story. I've always felt that stories, fiction are what have really taught me to live that they make my life ...
I think Maya's story demonstrates, more literally than most such stories, that _Always Coming Home_ is one of those books that gets bigger the more you delve...
Maya, wow -- thank you so much for your story, to inspire me on a grey Sunday. And maybe it's time to go back to Always Coming Home, one of my touchstone...
