When JerichoÍs father, a well-known pastor in Vicksburg, Mississippi, discovers the many letters the boys have sent to each other, he mercilessly beats Jericho with an extension cord and leaves the room without a word.

Years pass. Things change. Fate, it seems, crosses their paths a second time. The question is, ñwill they let love walk away twice?î

Download or read book Dispatches from Anarres Tales in Tribute to Ursula K Le Guin written by Susan DeFreitas and published by Forest Avenue Press. This book was released on 2021-11-23 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named for the anarchist utopia in Ursula K. Le Guin’s science fiction classic The Dispossessed, Dispatches from Anarres embodies the anarchic spirit of Le Guin’s hometown of Portland, Oregon, while paying tribute to her enduring vision. In stories that range from fantasy to sci fi to realism, some of Portland's most vital voices have come together to celebrate Le Guin’s lasting legacy and influence on that most subversive of human faculties: the imagination. Fonda Lee’s “Old Souls” explores the role of violence and redemption across time and space; Rachael K. Jones’s “The Night Bazaar for Women Turning into Reptiles” touches on gender oppression and a woman’s right to choose; Molly Gloss’s “Wenonah’s Gift” imagines coming-of-age in a post-collapse culture determined to avoid past wrongs; and Lidia Yuknavitch’s “Neuron” reveals that fairy tales may, in fact, be the best way to understand the paradoxes of science. Other contributors include Curtis Chen, Kesha Ajọsẹ-Fisher, Juhea Kim, Tina Connolly, David D. Levine, Leni Zumas, Rene Denfeld, and Michelle Ruiz Keil, with a foreword by David Naimon, co-author (with Le Guin) of Ursula K. Le Guin: Conversations on Writing.
