I wish I could go to this. I am currently taking Writing 121 at PCC SE. My instructor is not teaching any women authors, sadly. I love this comment: “I think our students need to hear from those who have achieved success in spite of challenging odds, and be exposed to innovative thinkers who question society’s norms as Le Guin does so eloquently.” I agree. I think that all PCC writing instructors should strive for balance and teach some female authors in addition to male authors. That would be great!

Coolest Character in any book (even better than LOTR, or even Ged): Estraven!!!!!!!!!!!! If you need a better reason to read LHoD, Estraven is a very plain character, does absolutely nothing the entire first half of the book…then he breaks into prison to rescue the envoy and carries him on his back the entire escape. EPIC!!
