Episode 53 - The Endless Violence of Colonialism. On Le Guin's Word for World is Forest

from The Left Page

Hello everyone! Today I bring you another wonderful story from Ursula K. Le Guin. Word for World is Forest, from 1972, a story of violence, imperialism and colonialism. We go a bit heavier on those, but I still end up considering other points, such as communication, always present in Le Guin.
