A review by chioma_a
The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin

challenging emotional hopeful reflective tense slow-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? It's complicated

4.0

Le Guin writes about humanity with an unparalled amount of care and understanding. She chisel  warmth, comraderie—home even—from the bleak and frozen landscape of winter on an alien world.
