The Left Hand of Darkness
(Ace Books)The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin takes place on a planet where queer expression is the norm. On the icy world of Gethen, the hardy post-human populace are all ambisexual. This means that they take on male or female sexual characteristics during a brief monthly fertility period called kemmer, and may shift from one gender to the other depending on the month. As a result, their society is entirely different from the rest of human-colonized space. They have no concept of war, and are far more community based – as any person can become pregnant at any time. Human ambassador Gendy Ai discovers these cultural differences the hard way, and soon becomes a political pariah due to mistrust and misunderstanding. Part social commentary on gender, part political thriller, all queer.
