About the book

Le Guin's The Left Hand of Darkness follows the envoy Genly Ai on the planet Gethen, whose inhabitants have no fixed biological sex. His attempt to persuade Gethen to join a wider interstellar civilisation becomes entwined with politics, exile and his relationship with Estraven. The novel explores gender, loyalty, cultural difference and the difficulty of understanding another society.
