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?
Her big there are The Left Hand of Darkenss (about gender), The Disposed ( capitalism vs anarchism), The Lathe of Heaven (Dreams alter reality).
They are all good but I wouldn’t describe them as easy or fun reads. I didn’t enjoy any of them but after reading them I a lot of depth of thought on the topic.
Personally I liked the Lathe of Heaven best.
The Lathe of Heaven. It’s a fun little jaunt through deterministic reality bending.
Maybe not the first book to read, but one of the ones that made me think the most was The Dispossessed
Le Guin is one of my favorite authors, so I’m excited to see other people reading her for the first time!
I recently read and really enjoyed The Left Hand of Darkness. It’s crazy that she wrote such a book back then. Now I’m longing for more books like this.
Today, I’m on (a rare) vacation (yay!). I’m reading through her Earthsea books. When they ended sooner than I expected, I realized they were intended as young adult books. It’s not as in depth as other fantasy, but I’ve enjoyed them nonetheless.
