Well, there's no need to argue any more.

Well, fuck.
I teach Left Hand of Darkness each time I get Science Fiction to teach (last time was 2015). The students always love it, even the ones I know are very socially conservative. The discussions are great, and especially for college kids, super respectful. Last time, when we read it at the very end of the spring semester, I had a graduating senior student come out as trans to me and then (through her own initiative, not my doing, of course) to the class. The highest compliment I can pay LeGuin is that she changed that young woman's life through her writing. Thank you for that, Ursula, from someone who witnessed the power your words had.

I will miss her intelligence, her clarity, and her respect for the world.

I wish I could say I was surprised.
I wish I could say I was upset. I didn't even know who he was, but after skimming the article, I think he took the easy way out.
