Review: I bought this after Ursula Le Guin sadly passed away, having been told I should read her short story "Texts". I read several of her novels when I was young (rather a long time ago), but had missed the short stories - suprisingly, as it's a format I love. I'd forgotten how much I liked her writing. Many of these are very sad, though.

Review: I couldn’t get into it, but that’s not to say it’s a bad book. The chapters are all different stories and I found it irritating. It does say “selected stories” so it’s my fault! I was just expecting more continuity.
