Fishtrap kicks off the Big Read
Fishtrap launches this
year’s Big Read program in
celebration of Ursula Le Guin
and her classic novel, “A Wiz-
ard of Earthsea” with a free
screening of the award win-
ning documentary, “Worlds
of Ursula K. Le Guin” pre-
sented by the fi lmmaker,
Arwen Curry, at 7:00 p.m. on
Tuesday, February 12, at the
Enterprise Christian Church
in Enterprise. Fishtrap’s Big
Read is presented in partner-
ship with Community Bank,
Pacifi c Power, Wallowa
County Cultural Trust Coa-
lition, Oregon Arts Commis-
sion, Ponderosa Motel, The
Bookloft, and Art Center East.
Admission is free.
Worlds of Ursula K. Le
Guin explores the remarkable
life and legacy of the late Ore-
gon author Ursula K. Le Guin.
Best known for groundbreak-
ing science fi ction and fan-
tasy works such as A Wizard
of Earthsea, The Left Hand
of Darkness, and The Dis-
possessed, Le Guin defi antly
held her ground on the mar-
gin of “respectable” literature
until the sheer excellence of
her work, at long last, forced
the mainstream to embrace
fantastic literature. Her fasci-
nating story has never before
been captured on fi lm.
Produced with Le Guin’s
participation over the course
of a decade, “Worlds of
Ursula K. Le Guin” is a jour-
ney through the writer’s
career and her worlds, both
real and fantastic. Viewers
will join the writer on an inti-
mate journey of self-discov-
ery as she comes into her own
as a major feminist author,
opening new doors for the
imagination and inspiring
generations of women and
other marginalized writers
along the way. The fi lm fea-
tures stunning animation and
refl ections by literary lumi-
naries including Margaret
Atwood, Neil Gaiman, David
Mitchell, Michael Chabon,
and more.
“We’re very lucky to have
fi lmmaker Arwen Curry visit
