Best known for her literary science fiction and fantasy books, Le Guin crosses all genres. She recently published a book of poetry and drawings with photographs by Roger Dorband. Roberts visited with Le Guin recently to talk about her works and career.

Dmae also attended a book party for "Out here" at the Looking Glass books. Le Guin said it was her very first book launch she's ever had.
