Let’s say that I may only read one or two, as I’m not a prolific reader. What do you think I should get?
The classic is a wizard of earthsea/left hand of darkness and they are always worth repeating. If you do just two, those are them. It’s almost criminal how these are kinda slipping beneath view these days.
I got a steady diet of her short stories and children’s books growing up. I remember sur specifically, but generally they were less fantasy oriented from what I can remember. (Edit:huzzah autocorrect)
The Left Hand of Darkness is great. I really need to get around to Wizard of Earthsea.
I think you’re in for a treat, but I am horribly biased by nostalgia and it’s impossible for me to be objective about that one. There is something deeply soothing to how what stands out changes even if the words don’t.
I remembered " to light a candle is to cast a shadow ".
But: “I had forgotten how much how much light there is in the world, till you gave it back to me”. Jumped out.
