I Keep Thinking About This Post, So I Figured I Would Make One About Some Iconic Hungarian Retro Songs,

I am re-reading The Left Hand of Darkness and unfortunately, my brain is too rotten for this, because all I can think about is an alternate timeline where the girlies got absolutely sauced on this book and instead of inventing the Omegaverse, people just wrote Kemmering AUs instead.

to be clear, Ursula K. LeGuin would hate this

i'm trying to give actual shape to the blurry Estraven from my head

this!!! I was gagged when Another Story started with the TLHOD opening phrase...

best thing i've learned from UKLG currently is that you can reuse motifs across bodies of work, and people actually go crazy for that

thoughts on estraven's death: the image of the grieving mother. Genly holding estraven is a callback to the Pietà and other similar works of women holding and weeping over a loved one. Amid all the other cultural references in LHOD, this one stands out to me. Genly is cast as a woman at the climax of the novel, a symbol of not only his changing attitudes but his changing gender identity as well.
