| We turn today to the literary world. Of course, by "literary" I mean "science fiction." https://www.brainpickings.org/2014/10/17/ursula-k-le-guin-gender/ Ursula K. Le Guin on Being a Man A journey to where the semicolon meets the soul. Okay, so, that whole thing is, I will admit, too dense for me. And by "dense" I mean "impenetrable." Like a New Yorker article. And I'm not even going to tackle gender issues in this blog, because I still haven't figured out what the hell is meant by gender issues. But Le Guin is, indisputably, a great writer. Not just because she helped give science fiction respectability, although that's part of it, but because she can put things into words that most of us find inexpressible. Still, I'm at a loss to see her point, here, or that of the author who is excerpting her work. Maybe someone else can make some sense out of it and explain it to me. |
