A review by ananthousflorist
The Lathe of Heaven by Ursula K. Le Guin

challenging dark hopeful reflective sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

simultaneously so far and yet so close to reality; scarily prescient, unprecedentedly accurate. about halfway through this book took a vonnegut-esque turn (positive) but the absurdity in no way detracted from the commentary or critique, which was a work of understated genius.
