Le Guin’s writing in this series is poetic. The style reminds me of Beowulf: the Story is more important than the plot or the characters (although the plot and characters are certainly there).
Moderate: Misogyny and Fire/Fire injury
Minor: Ableism, Child abuse, Incest, Physical abuse, Rape, Torture, Grief, and Injury/Injury detail
