Screening as part of Feminist Book Fortnight, the film tells the remarkable life story of writer Ursula K. Le Guin, who passed away in 2018 at the age of 88. Le Guin’s books defy gender norms, societal expectations and patriarchal gate keeping. A defiantly independent writer known for her science fiction and fantasy novels from the 1960s such as 'A Wizard of Earthsea' and 'The Left Hand of Darkness'.
The screening will be introduced by Jane A. Adams, a crime writer who also acts as a literary mentor and Royal literary Fund Fellow and Kathleen Bell who is Associate Professor of Creative Writing at De Montfort University. Both are long-term fans of Ursula K Le Guin’s work.
