A review by ithinktfiam
Hainish Novels & Stories, Vol. 2: The Word for World Is Forest / Five Ways to Forgiveness / The Telling / Stories by Ursula K. Le Guin

2.0

I love Le Guin, but this collection isn't good. It's five Hainish novellas interlinked in the history of two planets, Werel and Yeowe. While she's always had a strong message, these are passed with a sledge hammer and haven't aged well. They're tales of misogyny, business and slavery that are unrelentingly heavy handed.
