A short, gentle, beautiful and poetic book that guides you through a narrative, encouraging you to ponder and question issues of culture, materialisim, prejudice, spirituality and religion.

For a book that centres around “telling”, it's ironic that I just can't put into words my feelings about this masterpiece.

Somehow, through words, Ms LeGuin goes beyond words, and right to the heart.

I loved it.
