Title
Dancing at the Edge of the World: Thoughts on Words, Women, Places - Paperback
by Ursula K. Le Guin (Author)
"Ursula Le Guin at her best . . . This is an important collection of eloquent, elegant pieces by one of our most acclaimed contemporary writers." --Elizabeth Hand, The Washington Post Book World
"I have decided that the trouble with print is, it never changes its mind," writes Ursula K. Le Guin in her introduction to Dancing at the Edge of the World. But she has, and here is the record of that change in the decade since the publication of her last nonfiction collection, The Language of the Night. And what a mind--strong, supple, disciplined, playful, ranging over the whole field of its concerns, from modern literature to menopause, from utopian thought to rodeos, with an eloquence, wit, and precision that makes for exhilarating reading.
"If you are tired of being able to predict what a writer will say next, if you are bored stiff with minimalism, if you want excess and risk and intelligence and pure orneriness, try Le Guin." --Mary Mackey, San Francisco Chronicle
Author Biography
Ursula K. Le Guin won the Hugo, Nebula, Gandalf, Kafka, and National Book Awards, and was the author of more than seventy-five books, including The Left Hand of Darkness, A Fisherman of the Inland Sea, Four Ways to Forgiveness, and many other beautifully wrought works of the imagination.
