Ursula K Le Guin has left a large body of work, both fiction and non fiction, behind after her death. This book contains her earliest pieces of writing along with her commentary. It is a fascinating look into her development as a writer and her though process in writing. Many of her later themes had their beginnings in these early writings. A good companion piece to this book is her collection of essays, etc -Dancing at the Edge of the World
