No Time to Spare: Thinking About What Matters by Ursula K. Le Guin with an Introduction by Karen Joy Fowler --- 215 pages
I have been a fan of Ursula K. Le Guin since I discovered science fiction and fantasy in my teens. Once I had the opportunity to hear her speak, and read aloud from one her books, in a packed auditorium at a library conference. I discovered that the magic of her language was only exceeded by hearing that magic made by her own voice.
What I love about this book is how I can hear the echo of the cadences of that voice in the written words on the page. A collection of blog posts written over five years, by a woman with a keen eye, a keen wit, wielding the fateful lighting of her terrible swift pen. Long may her truth march on!
