Ursula K. Le Guin

One of the best fiction authors I ever read has died. :( Currently, there are no authors ready to fill her shoes. She is, and will be, missed.
I started reading her works when I was in college, way back in the 1960s. She was brilliant, although one of the most difficult authors I had ever read at the time. As a reader, she taught me much about English, sentences and vocabulary. Readers cannot just speed through her works, especially her novels — she hides too much in plain sight.
I wish that I had met her. I will miss her. :rose: Rest in peace, Ms. Le Guin.

I read her book "The Dispossessed" when I was a college student. Right away upon reading the first sentence, it was like a movie just started in my head...her descriptions were soo vivid. And I just could not put it down.
