The compass rose : short stories

The Many Points of Wonder From dream worlds to nightmare planets, through mazes of madness to tiny time holes in space, down Pathways of Desire to a New Atlantis, THE COMPASS ROSE points the way to the wonder-filled mind-country of a remarkable writer. "As good as any contemporary at creating worlds, imaginary or our own... Le Guin writes with painstaking intelligence. Her characters are complex and haunting, and her writing is remarkable for it's sinewy grace." --TIME Magazine
