larryhammerAn actual Reading Wednesday post.
From my late teens through my twenties, I read Le Guin’s Always Coming Home once a year. I no longer recall exactly how/when I fell out of the habit, but it was almost certainly the distractions of adulting. (The Kesh would consider this unmindfulness typical of a backward-head.) Since then, I’ve reread it all through once plus occasionally dipped into specific sections, but even that has not been for a while.
The past couple weeks, I’ve encountered several reminders of the book and its peoples, however, which I’ve taken as a sign that it’s time. I’ve just finished the second part of Stone Telling’s story.
Heya heya hey, heya hey.
Reading of the peoples,
reading of the Valley,
bringing into mind
the peoples of the Valley
living mindfully.
Subject quote from Dragonfly Song, from Always Coming Home, Ursula K. Le Guin.
