Words Are My Matter: Writings on Life and Books

A collection of essays on life and literature, from one of the most iconic authors and astute critics in contemporary letters.

Words Are My Matter is essential reading: a collection of talks, essays, and criticism by Ursula K. Le Guin, a literary legend and unparalleled voice of our social conscience. Here she investigates the depth and breadth of contemporary fictionâ€”and, through the lens of literature, gives us a way of exploring the world around us.
Â
In â€œFreedom,â€ Le Guin notes: â€œHard times are coming, when weâ€™ll be wanting the voices of writers who can see alternatives to how we live now â€¦ to other ways of being, and even imagine real grounds for hope. Weâ€™ll need writers who can remember freedomâ€”poets, visionariesâ€”realists of a larger reality.â€

Le Guin was one of those authors and in Words Are My Matter she gives us just that: a vision of a better reality, fueled by the power and might and hope of language and literature.
