In this episode of Conversations on Anarres, we speak to writer Susan DeFreitas.
She recently edited a collection of speculative fiction stories written in honor of Ursula K. Le Guin entitled: "Dispatches from Anarres: Tales in Tribute to Ursula K. Le Guin". While she worked on the project, she also read all of Le Guin's novels. We sat down with her to ask her what insights she gained from this deep dive, particularly for thinking about social transformation and building imaginative bridges toward a more hopeful future.
DeFreitas shared with us her favorite Le Guin stories and how she admired the way Le Guin was able to find inspiration in non-Western European cultures for thinking about human resilience.
