4.0

 There's something about Le Guin's writing that feels like home. Despite her being one of The Greats of sci fi in the 60s and 70s, I find her works to be distinct and timeless. This book follows that pattern. It was a short, but poignant read that I enjoyed throughout. There were times when I felt the commentary overshadowed the plot, but I didn't mind.
