Squaring the Circle is a collection of fantastic tales by Gheorghe Sasarman, selected and translated by Ursula K. Le Guin, which Aqueduct Press will be releasing in trade paper back in May 2013. The tales in Squaring the Circle were written in Rumania, in Rumanian, in 1969. The book has been previously published in French and Spanish translations. Ursula K. Le Guin, reading the Spanish translation, felt compelled to bring 24 of its 36 tales into English. As she writes in her introduction, "Some books, unread books, exert the effect. Its not rational, not easy to explain. They dont glow or vibrate, though thats what theyd do in an animated movie. They just are in view, theyre there. Theres this book, on the shelf in a book store or the library or like this one in a pile on my desk, and it is visible, silently saying read me. And even if I have no idea what it is and what its about, I have to read it." The result of Le Guin's compulsion is this English edition of Sasarman's tales.
