Such a wild book. I've never read anything like this. Right from the beginning it was like diving into cool water on a hot day. Ursula K Le Guin is such an incredible writer. I've been into Taoism and Jungian archetypes for longer than I've been reading Le Guin, it might be why her writing resonates with me so much.
