Synopsis "Dancing at the Edge of the World: Thoughts on Words, Women, Places (in English)"

"I have decided that the trouble with print is, it never changes its mind," writes Ursula Le Guin in her introduction to Dancing at the Edge of the World. But she has, and here is the record of that change in the decade since the publication of her last nonfiction collection, The Language of the Night. And what a mind -- strong, supple, disciplined, playful, ranging over the whole field of its concerns, from modern literature to menopause, from utopian thought to rodeos, with an eloquence, wit, and precision that makes for exhilarating reading.

Ursula Kroeber Le Guin (1929 - 2018) cultivó tanto la narrativa, en forma de novela y cuento, como la poesía y la crítica. Su amplia obra ha merecido múltiples galardones, entre los que destacan el National Book Award, el American Book Award y numerosos premios Hugo, Nebula, Jupiter y Locus.

En 1991 recibió el Harold D. Vursell Memorial Award, otorgado por la American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, y en 2001, el SF Hall of Fame a toda su trayectoria. En el otro viento, la última novela de Terramar incluida en el volumen Historias de Terramar, recibió en 2002 el Premio World Fantasy. En 2003 fue elegida Gran Maestro por la SFWA, la asociación norteamericana de escritores de ciencia ficción.

Ella misma se describía como una persona «feminista, conservacionista, ecologista, norteamericana, apasionadamente comprometida con la literatura, paisaje y vida de la Costa Oeste».
