Left Hand Of Darkness

Description

A lone human ambassador is sent to the icebound planet of Winter, a world without sexual prejudice, where the inhabitants’ gender is fluid. His goal is to facilitate Winter’s inclusion in a growing intergalactic civilization. But to do so he must bridge the gulf between his own views and those of the strange, intriguing culture he encounters.

Embracing the aspects of psychology, society, and human emotion on an alien world, The Left Hand of Darkness stands as a landmark achievement in the annals of intellectual science fiction.

The Left Hand of Darkness was originally published in 1969 by Ace Books. Though it is often considered the fourth book of the Hainish Cycle, Ursula maintained that there is no particular cycle or order for the Ekumen novels.
