"Splendidly intricate and hugely imaginative tales." -Newsweek
A striking new 50th anniversary edition of Ursula K. Le Guin's extraordinary short story collection.
The recipient of numerous literary prizes, including the National Book Award, the Kafka Award, and the Pushcart Prize, Ursula K. Le Guin is renowned for her lyrical writing, rich characters, and diverse worlds. The Wind's Twelve Quarters collects seventeen powerful stories--including one of her most famous works of short fiction, "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas."
