Gifts by
Ursula K. LeGuin is an interesting tale about Orrec and Gry with the
former being the main character. Orrec is born to the leading family
in his area. The leaders of this place are such because they have a
strong manifestation of the gift of their line. This story is all
about Orrec's effort to manifest his gift AND what comes of it.
Gry has a strong
manifestation of her gift, but refuses to use it for the purposes
others desire and require of her.
I like this story.
For one, it's a tale of giftedness, which I enjoy. Somehow, though,
most of the gifts are quite different from the norm, which I also
enjoy a great deal.
My two eldest
daughters will be allowed to read this because intimate scenes are
basically nonexistent and there is no foul language. Yeay! This
story is definitely appropriate for all ages as far as I'm concerned.
Have you read Gifts
