Ursula K. Le Guin: Always Coming Home (LOA #315): Author's Expanded Edition (Library of America Ursula K. Le Guin Edition)

Ursula K. Le Guin's richly-imagined vision of a post-apocalyptic California, in a newly expanded version prepared shortly before her death

This fourth volume in the Library of Americaâ€™s definitive Ursula K. Le guin edition presents her most ambitious novel and finest achievement, a mid-career masterpiece that showcases her unique genius for world building. Framed as an anthropologistâ€™s report on the Kesh, survivors of ecological catastrophe living in a future Napa Valley,Â Always Coming HomeÂ (1985) is an utterly original tapestry of history and myth, fable and poetry, story- telling and song. Prepared in close consultation with the author, this expanded edition features new material added just before her death, including for the first time two â€œmissingâ€ chapters of the Kesh novelÂ Dangerous People. The volume con- cludes with a selection of Le guinâ€™s essays about the novelâ€™s genesis and larger aims, a note on its editorial and publication history, and an updated chronology of Le guinâ€™s life and career.
