    It's a Hugo winner. It's in a collection of winners I have, edited by Asimov.

    I've haven't taken any notice of Hugo or Nebula for a long time, ever since I realized how many of the winning novels were rubbish. For example, Larry F. Niven and L. Ron F. Hubbard (the "F" is my own addition) have won the Hugo, Niven many times.

    Forgive my snobbery, Frankie. I'm glad Le Guin got recognition for it.

    L. Ron Hubbard didn't win a Hugo. In my collection, Asimov talks about the convention where his followers showed up demanding that he win. There was this weird tone in Asimov's writing when he talked about it.

    Ah, maybe I was looking at nominations.

    I like some Asimov quite a bit.
