Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Le Guin is amazing and this is an amazing effort. An anthropoligist from the present visits the far far future and this is the report sent back home. It's filled with poetry and myths, descriptions of rituals and ceremonies and little autobiographical sketches. In the back she has appendices and a dictionary. It's awe inspiring. As for reading it. . .that's a little more difficult. There is no plot, very little actual story, no beginning and no end. And I probably spent 3 or 4 months working my way through it. Was it worth it? Definitely. All things Le Guin are worth it. Has she written better stuff? Absolutely.
