WOW. Just wow. I read Le Guin for the first time 10 years ago and loved her work, but this???? I’m glad to rediscover her genius at an age where I can appreciate it more. Le Guin deserves to be listed in the classics, and the message of this book will never not be salient. She masters writing AND storytelling in such a short amount of pages. Each line, each dialogue is rich with meaning and encourages you to chew and reflect on what it means to be human and free. This book was a masterpiece!!
