Good Place to Start With Ursula K. LeGuin? (lemm.ee)

I've been seeing her name a lot lately in terms of good science fiction and fantasy. I feel like I've lost so much attention span in terms of my ability to read and stuff and I'd like to start getting back into it, perhaps starting with her (or Terry Pratchett lol).

If I start with her, what's a good place to start with her work?

Without knowing anything about you then I'd recommend The Lathe of Heaven. If you want something more political and sociological, The disposed. If you are queer, then The Left Hand of Darkness shoots to the top of my recommendations.

But Ursula is my favorite author, so I think picking up any of these will be a treat.

The disposed.

"The Dispossessed." Great book!
