I can't find the words to praiseThe Winds twelve quarters & the compass rose, which contains the first two major short story collections of Ursula K. Le Guin's career. When I read Le Guin I always feel a combination of striking novelty and absolute familiarity. So beautiful.

Need a bit of a break. Gonna start listening to Le Guin's "The Word for World is Forest". I've only completed one book in the Hamish cycle, but it was very impressive, and I've heard that this one and "The Left Hand of Darkness", are both also really good.

Trivia: "The Word for World is Forest" is the inspiration behind the "Avatar" blockbuster movies.
