Just finished The Dispossessed by le Guin- what an incredible book. There are so many sentences that are so beautiful they moved me to tears. The story is so intelligent yet so human. It’s hard to believe such a philosophical/sociological novel could be this human but The Dispossessed is wholly both. It spoke to me of how our western society is deficient, and how it is beautiful, in a way that nothing has for a long time. It is a terrifying look at the human race; but above all, the book is loving, and I’m very glad we had le Guin to give it to us.
@boke I also read this book and I'm now reading one of her essay collections. This is truly a concept I miss in my current scifi reading. Someone trying out other concepts of societies.
