I checked "The Left Hand of Darkness" out from my library to read on my flight to New York City a few years ago. I read the entire thing on the flight--could not put it down. And because I'm that person that visits local bookstores while on vacation, I bought myself a copy while I was there.
It boggles my mind that this book was written at the end of the 60s. It was way ahead of time, and Le Guin's introduction regarding science fiction is a must read.
Now I'm itching to pull out my copy and ring in the new year with it.
