Description

Ursula K. Le Guin’s Portland home, where she penned literary masterpieces like “The Left Hand of Darkness” and “A Wizard of Earthsea,” has been officially recognized as a National Historic Landmark — a tribute to her groundbreaking legacy in literature and women’s history. Now donated to Literary Arts, the house will become the Ursula K. Le Guin Writers Residency, offering space and support to emerging writers — especially those from underrepresented communities — while also securing federal protections and potential funding for its preservation.
