A Quote by Ursula K. Le Guin
You can’t crush ideas by suppressing them. You can only crush them by ignoring them. By refusing to think, refusing to change.
Ursula K. Le Guin
The Dispossessed

Featured Listen
The Left Hand of Darkness explores themes of gender, politics, and human connection on an alien world. Set on the planet Gethen, where the inhabitants are ambisexual, the story follows a human envoy's mission to invite Gethen to join an interplanetary alliance. Le Guin's innovative portrayal of a genderless society challenged readers to reconsider assumptions about sex and gender roles.
Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time
The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.
