I’m rereading this masterpiece 7 years after my first encounter with it. Only chapter in and I am once again awed by Le Guin’s rich and complex approach, and her incredible skill at crafting beautiful, evocative sentences.

I’m finding myself slowing down a bit as I near the end of this masterpiece, mostly because I’m wanting to savor and immerse myself in one of the most surprisingly magnificent sequences of writing I’ve ever encountered in any novel: the depiction of two people on a harrowing, lonely trek across hundreds of miles of ice.

Ursula K. Le Guin was one of the most innovative thinkers and masterful crafter of language of anyone who’s ever put pen to paper.
