Ooof, you’re so good at explaining why I didn’t write about The Dispossessed! Yes, that’s it exactly -- it has all these layers but you don’t really need to understand them to keep going, and it really does feel like she got this singular glimpse into our future & is almost letting us in on it.
The Boy and the Heron sounds lovely, I’ll have to go see that.

She's one of the authors I wish I'd met. But I'd have nothing to say, really. I think I'll read Tehanu next, the 4th Earthsea book. It's a big one.
Left Hand of Darkness is definitely my favorite of hers.
I just picked up a copy of The Dispossessed. I'll read it soon.
