Jag kommer att tänka på beefen mellan le guin och Ishiguro gällande vad som är, och inte är, fantasy.
Från le Guins blogg:
"Mr Ishiguro said to the interviewer, “Will readers follow me into this? Will they understand what I’m trying to do, or will they be prejudiced against the surface elements? Are they going to say this is fantasy?”
Well, yes, they probably will. Why not?
It appears that the author takes the word for an insult.
To me that is so insulting, it reflects such thoughtless prejudice, that I had to write this piece in response."
