I enjoyed The Left Hand of Darkness and Earthsea, but my favourite of her works is Always Coming Home [1]. Such a rich and varied and humane book. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Always_Coming_Home
因为童年情结，我最喜欢的是《地海传奇》前三部，但她最巅峰的文笔大概是在后启示录半乌托邦小说《永远回家》里，而她最感人的文字也许出自关于社会应对种族主义与奴隶制的“连环故事集”《转机》（Five Ways to Forgiveness，原名《四种通往宽恕的方式》……）。不用多说，她的短篇小说也是极其绝妙……
Through childhood association, my favourite is the first three Earthsea books, but probably her greatest writing is in her post-apocalyptic semi-utopia Always Coming Home, and maybe her most moving writing is in the 'story suite' Five Ways to Forgiveness (originally Four Ways...) on societies dealing with racism and slavery. Needless to say, her short stories are marvellous…
If you want to get a sense of her mature utopian and anthropological thinking, then read "Always Coming Home". It's not a conventional novel but more of a series of observations on a post-apocalyptic society in California. The framing device is of an anthropological investigator from another time/place interviewing…
…at least, really understands and likes people. Perhaps that relates to her deep knowledge of anthropology, mentioned by others. She also deeply respected indigenous cultures. The two are combined in "Always Coming Home". And if you want a fascinating, multi-perspectival take on racism and slavery, the "story suite" "Five Ways to Forgiveness" is masterful. And of course, the "Earthsea" novels are incredible, and have…
我很喜欢《黑暗的左手》和《地海传奇》，但我最喜欢她的作品是《永远回家》（Always Coming Home）[1]。写得太丰满、多元又充满人性了。[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Always_Coming_Home

大师之一。《永远回家》是我最喜欢的她的作品之一。如果你在加州，这绝对是必读书目。
One of the greats. Always Coming Home is one of my all-time favorites of hers. Required reading if you’re in California.

如果你想体会她成熟期的乌托邦与人类学思考，那就读读《永远回家》。它不是传统意义上的小说，更像是一系列对加州后启示录社会的观察记录。叙事框架是一个来自另一个时空的人类学研究员在采访……

她另一本非常唯美的书是《永远回家》。有空一定要看看！
Another really beautiful book of hers is Always Coming Home. Check it out sometime!
……至少，真的理解并热爱人类。也许这跟别人提到过的她深厚的人类学素养有关。她也极其尊重原住民文化。这两者在《永远回家》中融为一体。如果你想看对种族主义和奴隶制深刻且多视角的探讨，“连环故事集”《转机》堪称大师手笔。当然，“地海”系列小说也棒极了，而且……
