I didn’t realize she’d left us until today. Her stories challenged me to think outside the box … and I did.

I can’t think of another scifi book that has a thicker atmosphere than GRASS. That sense of eerie dread is practically suffocating. Sorry that she’s gone; sorry that this is the reminder I nees to read more of her work. What an incredible woman.

I haven’t read any of her works. I shall now. I like that quote. It fits many of the supporters of the presidential candidate whose name I shall not say.

Yes, indeedy.
… I always felt like she wrote in archetypes, larger than life characters, and still brought her stories down to a human scale.
