Changing the Word, Changing the World with Ursula K. Le Guin

You can’t restructure society without restructuring the English language, says today’s guest Ursula K. Le Guin.  Not surprisingly her craft book engages class, race, gender, capitalism, and morality, but through the mechanics of language, an interrogation of grammar, punctuation, tense, and point of view.  Newly revised and rewritten for the 21st century writer of fiction and memoir, we talk about Le Guin’s latest book, Steering The Craft.  You can listen to the conversation here.
