Review of "The Left Hand of Darkness"

by Roger on Sat 2nd Dec 2017.

Supposedly has a strong feminine sub-text which I didn't get at all - perhaps we take it for granted now and its not so odd to write about a world where there is no difference between the sexes (even if ours is still not like that)
