Genly Ai is a human envoy on a frozen world where people are ambisexual and change gender monthly. This is Le Guin doing speculative fiction that asks serious questions about gender, politics, and what it means to be human. The prose is deliberate and thoughtful, and the central relationship between Genly and Estraven will haunt you long after you finish.
