Bright Futures SCI-FI BOOK CLUB: The Left Hand of Darkness

Bright Futures: Return of the Sci Fi Book Club!

Please note this event will be in person at the shop.

Mara will be your host.

Our December meeting of Bright Futures will be discussing The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin

The Book:

A literary masterpiece from one of the great writers of our time: 'Ursula Le Guin is a chemist of the heart' David Mitchell'Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone, it has to be made, like bread; remade all the time, made new' Two people, until recently strangers, find themselves on a long, tortuous and dangerous journey across the ice. One is an outcast, forced to leave his beloved homeland; the other is fleeing from a different kind of persecution. What they have in common is curiosity, about others and themselves, and an almost unshakeable belief that the world can be a better place.

As they journey for over 800 miles, across the harshest, most inhospitable landscape, they discover the true meaning of friendship, and of love.
