4.0
Average rating: 3.87
Eight short stories, good ones. While two of them were a reread for me (both Amazing: [b:Vaster Than Empires and More Slow|6337247|Vaster Than Empires and More Slow|Ursula K. Le Guin|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1371024138s/6337247.jpg|6523125] and [b:Direction of the Road|22174641|Direction of the Road|Ursula K.

All of them have a philosophical bent somewhere, which is something Le Guin is well-known for.
This was my third book-read of her short story compilations and yet still, I have to confess, I haven't been able to understand some of her short stories completely as one should. There is something much deeper to look out for in these ! :)
