I read Le Guin back in the late '80s; not out of any desire to read her work ( I'd thankfully never heard of her before! ), always read the required reading assigned to the progeny.

The "sex change at will" was made OBVIOUS and not only was it inappropriate for the grade it had been assigned to, but I found it to be absolute garbage, poorly written, and a ridiculous choice, given how many other great Sci-Fi books available to read instead!

And now we have the insane craze of "I WAS BORN A %$% IN A #%# BODY crap; with the children part of it Munchausen By Proxy child abuse!

So please stop trying to "sell" me on this; it does the complete opposite!

Of course you are welcome to your opinion, but so am I!

If you want to discuss this.Sci-Fi and FANTASY books further, then FRmail me. Otherwise, this discussion is over.

May I say you misunderstand me and my intentions?

I’m not trying to sell you on Le Guin. I’m trying to explain wny I think her work, some of it, has helped me.
