I recently read Ursula K. le Guin’s The Left Hand of Darkness with the intent of exploring it more thoroughly by writing about it. When I set out to read it I planned to pay attention to these particular subjects in it:
Handdarata (a religion, or philosophy)
Shifgrethor (I can give no brief explanation)
As I read it I jotted down these other topics which would be interesting to examine another time:
Shadows
Tibe’s teeth
War
Politics
Myth (outside of the Handdarata)
Patriotism
Religion
Dualism
Gender
Exile
It’s amazing how much is jammed into this book!! So many layers…aaahh. :)
