1.0 out of 5 stars An awful edition, March 13, 2007

By	Grano Salis - See all my reviews

LeGuin is a spellbinding storyteller and a fabulous fabulist. She is a master for the ages. Alas, this miserable edition is full of typesetting errors that disrupt the flow of her prose and render many passages unintelligible. Please buy other widely available editions of her work.
