a gem.

The questions weren't bad, but too bad a normal person didn't interview Le Guin ffs

What a delightful human being.

I‘m amazed by the clarity and down earth sense of her thinking. We could use more of that in todays world, a beautiful legacey she‘s left behind.

"There won't be any picnics after the bomb drops"

Writers cutoff from their audience is an epidemic in today's culture

Am i the only one who feels annoyed by thoose too quick questions of interviewers... I wished i could've listen to leguin's answers longer...

thank u for the upload

I so wishI had the chance to meet her in life, but I feel as if I have, through all her writing. It's so good to see interviews like this. She really inspired me so much in my life, not only in writing, but in my understanding of life. I will never have an experience of life on earth that was not touched by this woman.

Her face tells me that high school was hard for Ursula.

This is crazy. I haven't read a single book of hers. I just read a quote of her and used it in my shortfilm. I then googled her and wanted to know about her. For some reason I saw this whole interview. It is really great. I'm gonna check out her books.

What year was this filmed?

When is this from?

I wrote to her in 2016, telling her how much I loved the Earthsea Cycle. I wasn't expecting her to reply at age 86, and as such a well-known author, but she was kind enough to do so. She passed away two years later. I'll keep that letter forever!

Huh. She didn't write her classic series of books, The Left Hand of Darkness, the first Earthsea trilogy, the Lathe of Heaven, The Word for World is Forest and The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas until she was in her late 30s-mid 40s. That's encouraging :)

As a mother who always wanted to write, this is perfect to hear. What a beautiful talented woman.

Oh wonderful Ursula. So grateful for what you wrote and what you were.

Truly one of the greats, she was taken too soon

Who is the English author (Margaret?) that she mentions?

well I've probably read 10,000 books in my life so far, and although I am sort of beyond the notion of having favorites, still I would say she is probably my favorite author, or certainly one of the top 2 or 3.

Too white and cis-gender, not gonna watch.

2 people can do 3 jobs but a single person can't do 2 <3 such wisdom

What a beautiful human being and writer.

She seems short tempered

ENTJ with developed Ni and Fi

She's far left.

Anyone know what year this is?

She seems like a lovely woman and someone that i could talk to forever in a warm and lively way for hours.

Elder Le Guin's embodiment--and my god, the way she communicates to the interviewer with silence and her eyes--is soothing to my bones. To let it go down and transform and come back up.

Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin, features portions of a full length interview with Ursula K. Le Guin produced by TVAP (The Video Access Project) in 1985.

That was really great. Thank you for sharing this video

It was fucking lovely I had a cup of coffee and watched this and I felt like I was just in the room. I could almost smell the interviewers perm. ❤

A such beautiful woman and person alike ! I'll remain dispossessed forever.

Finished Left Hand of Darkness today. Can't wait to read what else she has to offer.

I came here after reading The Left Hand of Darkness, one of the best fiction books I've read in my life so far. I love her writing, and I love this interview. She left an amazing legacy in this world.

(interviewer) "What can I do to help a child realize it's ability?" (Le Guin musing to herself) "Well, not referring to them as "It" might be a good place to start."

I loved her writing

lmao, "the story is the message, you can't just extract fortune cookie things out of them" :p

whoa, this is gold. thanks for uploading!

AMAZING LADY

She translated the Book of Tao. She's made me scream 'what the fuck!' while reading a book more than anyone else i've ever read. Fuck i love this woman. What a genius...

I've enjoyed, and learned, more from Le Guin than any other author I can think of. I can't wait for the right people to make her stuff into film.

always coming home is one of the most beautiful and heart-moving books i've ever read. i know people find it hard to get into, as i did too, because it's unlike anything else. but i promise it's very worth it to get to the end. there's a sense of coming full circle, as is natural to the theme and form of the book. i would add to le guin's explanation of the title that, for me, it depicts humans coming home to the essence of humanity, and that is the dancing of groupness and individuality in flow with nature, time, stories, work, conflict, peace. it is a place where humans have lived before and humans will live there again.

A very early interview re-released in 2018 for UA-cam - wonder when this was actually done?

This is a distinctly good interview

good observation: 2 people CAN do 3 full time jobs, but one person cannot do 2 full time jobs! my experience agrees

💗💗💗

I've never read her. I don't read fantasy hardly ever and I don't know why I watched this video TBH. But I really liked her and now I feel I need to give her a try.
