    That one has a pop-up in it, unfortunately, and it looks likes the article isn't as substantive as the NYT obituary. Normally we'd prefer the niche source but in this case it's probably best to merge the thread into https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16218439 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16218439.

  R.I.P. Ursula, Left Hand of Darkness was one of my go to books for convincing literature snobs that SF was a legitimate genre.
