I feel so many things about this series and I don’t even know how to put them into words.
I just… how very satisfying it is to be able to see how Le Guin matured as a writer throughout this series. Her author’s note at the end punched me in the fucking gut.
Sometimes a family is an ex-priestess who desires to understand her place in existence, an ex-archmage who has lost his powers and seeks to come into his own as a man, and a child wronged at almost every turn who wants nothing more than a home to belong to and a family to love her. And that can be something so personal.
