A real pickle[Regrets]
Q: If you could make a change to anything you’ve written over the years, what would it be? Ursula K. Le Guin: In The Dispossessed, I would mention the communal pickle barrels at street corners in the big towns, restocked by whoever in the community has made or kept more pickles than they need. I knew about the free pickles all along, but never could fit them into the book.

Ursula K. Le Guin, from an interview with the TLS

My spouse showed me this quote of hers; I think about it almost every day. www.the-tls.co.uk/regular-feat...
