Book desription: Orlando, Florida, U.S.A.: Harcourt, 2003. First Edition. Hard Cover. New/New. Beddows, Eric. NEW - Missing a flight, waiting in an airport, listening to garbled announcements - who doesn't hate that misery? But Sita Dulip from Cincinnati finds a method of bypassing the crowds at the desks, the long lines at the toilets, the whimpering children, the bookless bookstores, and the blue plastic chairs. A mere kind of twist and a slipping bend, easier to do than describe, takes her not to Denver but to Strupsirts, a picteresque region of waterspouts and volcanoes, or to Djeyo where she can stay for two nights in a small hotel with a balcony overlooking the amber Sea of Somue. This new discovery - changing planes - enables Sita to visit bizarre societies and cultures that sometimes mirror our own and sometimes open doors into the alien. Le Guin's account of her travels is by turns funny, disturbing, and thought provoking. 246 pages. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
