Aqueduct Press is pleased to announce the release of Cheek by Jowl, a collection of talks and essays on
how and why fantasy matters, by Ursula K. Le Guin. In these essays, Le Guin argues passionately that the
homogenization of our world makes the work of fantasy essential for helping us break through what she calls
''the reality trap.'' Le Guin writes not only of the pleasures of her own childhood reading, but also about what
fantasy means for all of us living in the global twenty-first century.
