Title: Smart, engaging, and whimsical
Product review: This was my first book of Le Guin's and afterwards I was a fan. This collection of short sci-fi stories is a smart and creative cultural critique. I actually use this book for my class as a metaphor for challenging dominant cultural narratives and my students love it. Her stories aren't ideological- if anything they are more a probe into the ideological that disrupt narratives that often dictate our society. Some of the stories can appear quite "strange" but if you're into postmodern discourse then this is your book. A book I can re-visit again and again.
