Very Far Away from Anywhere Else by Ursula K. Le Guin

5.0

This book changed my life as a late teenager. The clarity (typical for UKLeG) with which the author portrays the compulsion, fear, joy, and paralysis of both human love and human striving for excellence allowed me to see myself in new ways. I can't think of another book involving a romance where I identified with *both* people in the relationship.
