What does /lit/ think of Ursula K. Le Guin?

>>	Anonymous Fri Jun 12 00:10:39 2020 No.15586489 >>15586484 Very good writer

>>	Anonymous Fri Jun 12 00:20:22 2020 No.15586560 not sexually attractive at all why bother reading something by someone not sexually attractive?

>>	Anonymous Fri Jun 12 00:30:23 2020 No.15586624 >>15586484 Good writer until menopause. The Earthsea trilogy was great, almost mythic...but that sequel was just a shrill, chiding lecture on how men are intrinsically evil. I couldn't finish it.

>>	Anonymous Fri Jun 12 05:36:26 2020 No.15587924 >>15586484 All I know of her is that she wrote an introduction to Murray Bookchins essay collection which, naturally, I skipped.

>>	Anonymous Fri Jun 12 06:07:47 2020 No.15588072 >>15586484 Earthsea may be one of the best fantasy series ever written, never read any of the sci-fi stuff, but i heard it's good

>>	Anonymous Fri Jun 12 06:09:28 2020 No.15588078 No idea. I don’t read women.

>>	Anonymous Fri Jun 12 09:49:56 2020 No.15589017 >>15586624 Which is the sequel that I should be wary of? I've got an omnibus edition that I haven't started reading yet

>>	Anonymous Fri Jun 12 10:47:45 2020 No.15589411 >>15586484 Very comfy fantasy books but not to be taken too seriously. The Dispossessed is a good book that is rarely talked about as well.
