Ursula K. Le Guin has taken readers to imaginary worlds for decades. Then in the last great frontier of life, old age, she explored new literary territory: the blog, a forum where her voice—sharp, witty, as compassionate as it is critical—shone. No Time to Spare collects the best of Ursula’s online writing, presenting perfectly crystallized dispatches on what mattered to her most, her concerns with this world, and her unceasing wonder at it: “How rich we are in knowledge, and in all that lies around us yet to learn. Billionaires, all of us.”
