What people say about Always Coming Home (California Fiction) (by Ursula K. Le Guin):

One of her best
Lyrical and Luminous
A Slow, Quiet, Rich Read
With apologies to Le Guin
Predicting, or observing?
It’s Hard to Know What I Think
Spiritual balm for a homesick Californian
So pleased it’s back in print!
Deserves a Much Wider Audience
A woman’s life-journey in a distant time, familiar place
Didactic Environmentalism
An Homage to Her Parents
Deeply insightful look at our culture via another culture.
An Archaeology of the Future
An Amazing Piece of Work!!
Synopsis of Always Coming Home, Utopia with feminist themes
Too Durkheimian for its own good; problematic as well
It’s the best!
It can take a lifetime to go thirty miles, and come back.
