Query: LeGuin attempts to destroy her own creation

What a surprise Tehanu turned out to be! I got the impression when I read this book that LeGuin, much later in her life, regretted making the heroic male character Ged in her Earthsea Trilogy, and so she added this novel to destroy Ged. Through out this novel, we are treated to endless, tiresome scenes of an impotent and useless Ged. It seems that LeGuin wants to shove into our face: "See! See! Ged is a whiny, useless man! He is nothing like the noble, likable character you thought you knew. Oh no. Ged is an evil man, and all men are bad, bad, bad!" It really is unrelenting in its portrayal, there is nothing enjoyable or lighthearted or redeeming in the entire book. After reading this book, my impression is that I would never want to meet Ursula LeGuin, because she sure seems like a bitter person.
