  • By Ryan Schafer -

    The cover makes it look like maybe Ursula K. Leguin adapted some folktales about animals. Don’t be deceived! There’s a lot more contained in this brilliant little book than you might imagine. The stories range from magical realism to somewhat conventional science fiction to some stuff that’s a lot harder to genrefy. What it is is a collection of smart, insightful stories, all of which use some imaginative and unconventional perspective to explore humankind’s relationship to nature.
