Ursula K. Le Guin: The Lathe of Heaven (1971)

LOA meets U. K. L-G

Nobody could accuse the 45-year-old Library of America [LOA] (1979- ) of lacking ambition when it comes to its decade-long Le Guin project. Starting in 2016, well before Le Guin's death in 2018, the library has projected a comprehensive eight-volume edition, covering most of her work - with the exception of the Earthsea books, still in print from another publisher, as well as her extensive work as an essayist and writer of children's fiction.

But perhaps it'd be simpler if I just quoted the salient parts of this 2020 article from the Tor Books website:

Library of America has begun publishing more genre fiction in recent years, including the works of Ursula K. Le Guin. According to Associate Editor Stefanie Peters, the nonprofit publisher has four more volumes of the late author’s work coming in the next couple of years.
LOA has already published four volumes of Le Guin’s work: The Complete Orsinia, Always Coming Home, and Hainish Novels & Stories, Volume One and Two.
The next volume, Peters says, publishes October 6th, and will include Le Guin’s Annals of the Western Shore trilogy, the first time that those books have been brought together into one volume. That trilogy is comprised of her novels Gifts, Voices, and Powers, set in an unnamed magical world, and which follow a series of characters as they contend with racism and slavery, as well as the powers that they have acquired.
“We also took Le Guin’s hand drawn maps from the books,” Peters says “plus one new map that hasn’t been published before — and colorized them, as we’ve done with our preview Le Guin volumes. They will appear as some really attractive endpapers in this edition.”
Beyond this upcoming edition, LOA will publish an additional three volumes of Le Guin’s work: one including all of her poetry, a collection of her complete short stories, and a collection of novels that brings together Lavinia, Searoad, The Lathe of Heaven, The Eye of the Heron, and The Beginning Place.
Library of America’s books will join some other major collections of Le Guin’s work. Saga Press recently released a collected edition of Le Guin’s Earthsea novels and short stories, as well as two massive collections of her shorter works: The Found and the Lost, and The Unreal and the Real, while The Folio Society has released a trio of new editions of her books The Left Hand of Darkness, A Wizard of Earthsea, and The Dispossessed.

- Marian Wood Kolisch, "Library of America Will Publish Four More Volumes of Ursula K. Le Guin’s Works" (March 13, 2020)

Ursula K. Le Guin: Always Coming Home (1985)

I've already written a post or two about my own love of Le Guin's work: a general one on The Imaginary Museum (14/10/18), but also another on the connections between her family, the Kroebers, and Ishi, the (so-called) 'last wild Indian in America.'

This piece is intended to be more narrowly bibliographical. I got interested in the dynamics of putting together 'a collection of her complete short stories', as promised above, and thought it might be interesting to compile a list of her work in that genre focussed around the volumes of the LOA collected edition which have already appeared.

Presumably, for instance, the LOA complete short stories would not have to include any of the 13 Orsinian Tales which have already appeared in print in their Orsinia volume. Then there are another 16 SF stories in their double-volume Hainish Novels & Stories. As well as that, there are the 12 stories which make up Searoad: Chronicles of Klatsand (1991), reprinted in their latest volume, Five Novels (2024).

You'll see from the lists included below that Le Guin published at least seven major short story collections in her lifetime - not to mention a two-volume Selected Stories, together with a book of her collected novellas:

1. The Wind's Twelve Quarters (1975) [W] (17)
2. The Compass Rose (1982) [R] (20)
3. Buffalo Gals, and Other Animal Presences (1987) [G] (11)
4. A Fisherman of the Inland Sea (1994) [F] (8)
5. Unlocking the Air and Other Stories (1996) [U] (18)
6. The Birthday of the World and Other Stories (2002) [B] (8)
7. Changing Planes: Stories (2003) [C] (16)
8. The Unreal and the Real: Selected Stories. 2 Vols (2012) [T] (39)
9. The Found and the Lost: The Collected Novellas (2016) [N] (13)

That's not counting the following themed collections, some of them already mentioned above:

1. Orsinian Tales (1976) - included in The Complete Orsinia (2016) [O] (13)
2. Always Coming Home (1985) - included in Always Coming Home: Author’s Expanded Edition (2019) [A] (5)
3. Searoad: Chronicles of Klatsand (1991) - included in Five Novels (2024) [K] (12)
4. Four Ways to Forgiveness (1995) - included in Hainish Novels & Stories (2017) [H] (16)
5. Tales from Earthsea (2001) - included in The Books of Earthsea (2018) [E] (9)

If you look at the preliminary list of stories I've compiled below - with the aid of Wikipedia's very useful Ursula K. Le Guin bibliography - you'll see that it includes 142 stories (give or take a few, due to the reshaping and subsequent re-ordering of certain pieces).

If we subtract from these 55 stories already collected elsewhere in the LOA edition and the Books of Earthsea, then we're left with 87 to put into the stand-alone LOA Complete Stories book. Is that possible? Who knows? It certainly bids fair to be the heftiest volume in the entire edition, if so.

But then, given the girth of some of the earlier publications in the series - their collected Hawthorne (1494 pp.) or Poe (1408 pp.), for instance - that mightn't be too anomalous.

Faulkner in the Library of America

Library of America caps its six-volume William Faulkner edition with a volume gathering all the stories he collected in his lifetime: his monumental Collected Stories (1950); Knight’s Gambit (1949); and Big Woods (1955). This volume offers these three collections as carefully prepared by Faulkner, with new authoritative and corrected texts that best represent his intentions. Also here are the stories “The Hound” (included in his second story collection Doctor Martino but omitted from Collected Stories) and “Spotted Horses”; the fictionalized autobiographical essay “Mississippi”; Faulkner’s Nobel Prize acceptance speech; and explanatory notes by scholar Theresa M. Towner.

- Library of America: Forthcoming (Fall 2023)

Joseph Blotner (1923-2012)

In my previous post on William Faulkner, I concentrated on William Blotner's immensely detailed two-volume biography of the writer, which I'd just finished reading at the time.

Other points of interest for me then were the Folio Society's recent re-edition of The Sound and the Fury, with the disparate plot-lines picked out in different colours, as the author originally intended.

Noel Polk (1943-2012)

Both Blotner and his fellow editor Noel Polk died shortly after completing their monumental, five-volume, twenty-years-in-the-making Library of America edition of Faulkner's collected novels. There was a nagging gap left in their coverage, however: a volume of stories was definitely required to complete the canon of his fiction.

Theresa M. Towner

That task has now been undertaken by Professor Theresa M. Towner of the University of Texas at Dallas.

It is, in some ways, a simpler job than that of collating all the 'corrected' texts of the various novels, given her decision to include only the three canonical story collections.

In other ways, however, it points to the difficulty of tidying Faulkner's untidy, sprawling works into one definitive order. The Snopes trilogy, for instance, is largely made up of revised texts of originally separate short stories, and the same is true of many of the other novels (The Unvanquished, in particular).

William Faulkner: Uncollected Stories (1979)

It's for this reason that Joseph Blotner's Uncollected Stories will remain an indispensible part of Faulkner's bibliography, as it includes so much more information on the disparate texts of these novels-in-linked-stories.

Faulkner was immensely prolific when it came to writing (and publishing) short stories: the list below runs to 129 items, only 42 of which he chose to include in his Collected Stories (1950). If we add to those the six in Knight's Gambit (1949), the one uncollected story in Big Woods (1955), and the other three stories mentioned in the Library of America press release quoted above, it brings us to a total of 52.

We should add to that, though, the seven stories in The Unvanquished (1938), the two in Wild Palms (1939), and the seven in Go Down, Moses (1942), all included elsewhere in the Library of America edition. That swells our number to 68.

Any Faulkner completist will probably already have a copy of the 17 early stories included in New Orleans Sketches (1958), and the 45 stories - some of them texts of stories revised for later novels - in Uncollected Stories (1979) account for most of the remainder.

I can still see twelve stories in the list below which don't yet seem to have been reprinted in any easily available form, but they don't sound as if they constitute too great a loss: even Homer nods, let alone William Faulkner.

1. Landing in Luck (1919)
2. The Hill (1922)
3. Notes on a Horsethief (1951)
4. By the People (1955)
5. Hell Creek Crossing (1962)
