Ursula K. Le Guin correspondence with Lyman Tower Sargent, 2001-2002.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/57358443

The collection consists of four letters exchanged between Ursula K. Le Guin and Lyman Tower Sargent between January 2001 and February 2002. Sargent initially writes asking about a William James quote that was changed in Le Guin's work; she replied that she was unaware of the source of the change. Sargent later asks permission to quote the letter in his article, The Problem of the 'Flawed' Utopia, and Le Guin responds favorably.
