Hello everyone! For this month's episode I, shamelessly, dive back into Le Guin's fiction, but not only that, and not alone! I am joined by the excellent Chase from Faith and Capital and Mass Struggle, so we can talk about utopias, utopianism and two different short stories: The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas, by Le Guin, and The Ones Who Stay and Fight, by N. K. Jemisin.
From the titles you can already tell the latter is connected to or commenting on the former, and we draw on that. On the images of utopia, on ideology and what both stories offer to analysis, critique and understanding as well! All in all, a wonderful chat, and one that is absolutely what I am about when thinking of and dealing with utopia and utopianism. Enjoy!!
