Margaret Atwood - Tribute to Ursula K. Le Guin

[@TorgerVedeler]

I always learn something when I listen to these two authors. Thank you.

Ursula k Le Guin and Margaret Atwood. Two of my favourite authors. I have read Ursula Le Guin's books since I was a young person, and have continued ever since. I will miss reading the next, but I will always have my collections of her books. And this year 2020 I purchased the beautiful edition of The Books of Earthsea. A fitting tribute to her

This is so beautiful. Even the way Atwood moves the book in her arms after reading the excerpt clearly says something.

Her dragons are the best dragons!

❤ The palpable, deep, vulnerable appreciation, both personally and from a truly skilled professional colleague, is so rewarding to listen to.

Thank you Margaret Atwood. Yes, Ursula K Le Guin has the best dragons. It is a privilege to read you both because you are both "pretty clever".

[@enzopotel]

Atwood: "where did the ones who walk away from Omelas go? " Le Guin: "nice weather we´re having." - - - Indeed... how to answer this anyway, or why? "They go to another Omelas" or "it doesnt matter" or "they go to a worse but more honest place". "Nice weather" is a good answer : )

[@joshualavender]

I think so, too. At the story's end, Le Guin says the ones who walk away from Omelas "seem to know where they are going." It's a magical ambiguity. They may not know where they're going, but they have an *idea* they must follow.

I love this.

[@KootFloris]

Everyone tends to talk Earthsea. I think LeGuin's greatest contribution was SF, without huge shootouts but humanity, empathy, and the care for the world as a whole.

@@joshbhoy Exactly!

[@mariamkinen8036]

I prefer biograph -type of writing. Writing is our voice. TY. One can express the deepest ideas n emotions in writing.

[@tessierashpoolmg7776]

Is Atwood communicating via ansible?

[@BedIntruder2107]
