Description

Ursula Le Guin took readers to imaginary worlds for decades. In her last great frontier of life, old age, she explored a new literary territory: the blog, a forum where she shone.

The collected best of Le Guin's blog, No Time to Spare, presents perfectly crystallised dispatches on what mattered to her late in life, her concerns with the world and her wonder at it.

She brings her signature wit and wisdom to topics as diverse as ageing, imaginative literature, capitalism, her beloved rescue cat, classism, cultural perceptions of fantasy and the courage and resolution involved in eating an egg from the shell.

This is essential reading for Le Guin's myriad admirers, revealing new sides to a trailblazing and beloved author who influenced literary greats across genres and generations.
