Explore the remarkable life, legacy and imagination of the late science fiction author Ursula K. Le Guin. Best known for groundbreaking works such as Earthsea, The Dispossessed and The Left Hand of Darkness, Le Guin defiantly held her ground on the margins of the writing world until the sheer depth of her work forced the mainstream to embrace fantasy in literature. Join Le Guin on an intimate journey of self-discovery as she comes into her own as a major feminist voice, opening new doors for generations of marginalized writers along the way. The first documentary on the renowned writer, Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin features interviews with literary luminaries including Neil Gaiman, Margaret Atwood, Michael Chabon and more.
