Le Guin reflects on genre, imagination and the ethical work of writing. Illuminating the making of major works such as 'A Wizard of Earthsea' and 'The Left Hand of Darkness', Le Guin argues for science fiction and fantasy as literary modes capable of philosophical, political and emotional inquiry. She considers artistic responsibility, the uses of myth, the craft of storytelling, and the role of the writer as both public intellectual and teacher. This wide-ranging collection traces Le Guin's emergence as one of the most influential literary voices and champions the imagination as a vital instrument of freedom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9781068240959.
