Le Guin withdrew her story from the novelette category in protest of SFWA's withdrawal of an offer of honorary membership to Polish writer Stanislaw Lem after protests by some SFWA members.

Dick.) </div> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> </div>  </div>  </div>  <br clear="all"> <div class="copyrightblock"> Copyright 2012 - 2025 by Mark R.
