Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Famous for her 1960s^-70s science fiction and fantasy novels, Le Guin has more recently published poetry, children's books, and short stories. This is a collection of the last, most of them quite short. Read all at once, they pall, for their manners are too alike. They are magically realistic: "Ether, OR," for instance, is set in a town that moves around, though its buildings seem not to. They are introspective and often about introspection: "The Professor's Houses" focuses on the miniature house on which a man lavishes his attention rather than fixing the family domicile. They are self-consciously writerly: the title story follows an uprising in an Eastern European country in sections each of which begins with a statement of its literary type or stock subject ("This is history," "This is a committee meeting," etc.). They are very well written: every sentence, paragraph, and section is well-balanced and melodious--which saves them when they start seeming precious. Not at all precious, however, is the riveting "Standing Ground," set in and outside of an abortion clinic. Ray Olson --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
