Aș avea nevoie de recomandări de mop electric bazate pe experiență reală, directă cu așa ceva.

Aș vrea să fie ușor de folosit, asta însemnând: să nu fie prea greu, să îl pot goli si curăța rapid și simplu după utilizare, să nu aibă zeci de componente care trebuie spălate de fiecare dată. Preferabil, un aparat doar cu funcție de mop; nu prea am încredere in aparatele multifuncționale. Dar, daca știți vreun aparat-minune, sunt deschisă la sugestii.

I recently introduced Ursula K. Le Guin to a friend through the book of essays The Wave in the Mind. She absolutely loved it, so she decided to start reading the Earthsea books. She's a big fan of fantasy literature, hence the first choice.

After the first book, she told me that she found the Earthsea universe very misogynistic, and that it felt as though it had been written by a different person from the one who wrote the essays. It put her off enough that she doesn't really feel like trying another text of Ursula.

Now, it has been a loong time since I read Earthsea - more than 20 years; yes, I’m old - and I don’t remember all that much. I do remember most of the protagonists being male, and the universe being quite patriarchal, but I don’t think I perceived it as misogynistic at the time.

People, especially Ursula fans who have read the books more recently, would you care to share your thoughts? I’m genuinely curious about how Earthsea might be perceived by a younger, feminist reader today.

Thank you.
