Title: Low-key, but incredible
Review: This is truly one of Le Guin's best novels. A very grim story of a man whose dreams alter reality and the psychologist who manipulates his talents to improve his career and then the world itself, with mixed results to say the least. Much has been made of the socio-political points Le Guin was attempting to make with this novel, although I think such speculations on where this book, or Le Guin herself, stands on the political/ideological spectrum are rather pointless. Here Le Guin seems to be exploring a much deeper problem, i.e. the hubris of humans who think they are the masters of the earth, able to mold it as they will without consequences. On another level, "Lathe of Heaven" seems to simply be an elaboration of the old adage about being careful of what we wish for, because it just may come true.
