Always Coming Home (California Fiction) - Softcover

"LeGuin here focuses her inimitable world-building skills on two conflicting societies of the future--implying, of course, their relevance to the present...no one does this type of utopian near-allegory better."-- (03/29/2001)

Ursula Le Guin's Always Coming Home is a major work of the imagination from one of America's most respected writers of science fiction. More than five years in the making, it is a novel unlike any other. A rich and complex interweaving of story and fable, poem, artwork, and music, it totally immerses the reader in the culture of the Kesh, a peaceful people of the far future who inhabit a place called the Valley on the Northern Pacific Coast.
