NEW: Sci-Fi Book Event: "The Left Hand of Darkness" by Ursula K. Le Guin
Details
** Good news: due to popular demand, we have created a sub-group within the book club, focusing on Sci-Fi & Fantasy books. **
This group will also meet monthly, and has an initial limit of 12 person (due to venue size at the Regenbogenhaus).
The Sci-Fi Fantasy group also has a separate Whatsapp Group chat, and Excel sheet for suggesting and voting on books to read. **
Our first book - the evening hosted by Callie & Roberto:
A groundbreaking work of science fiction, The Left Hand of Darkness tells the story of a lone human emissary to Winter, an alien world whose inhabitants spend most of their time without a gender. His goal is to facilitate Winter's inclusion in a growing intergalactic civilization. But to do so he must bridge the gulf between his own views and those of the completely dissimilar culture that he encounters.
Embracing the aspects of psychology, society, and human emotion on an alien world, The Left Hand of Darkness stands as a landmark achievement in the annals of intellectual science fiction.
