Dancing at the Edge of the World is a 1989 nonfiction collection by Ursula K. Le Guin.

Contents

The collection is divided into two categories: talks and essays, and book and movie reviews. Within each category, the works are organized chronologically; they are further marked by what Le Guin calls the Guide Ursuline—a system of symbols denoting the main themes of the works. The four themes with which she categorizes the essays are feminism (♀), social responsibility (○), literature (□) and travel (→). [1]
