Über diesen Titel

There have been eighty requests to send an Observer into the hinterlands of the planet Aka to study the natives. Much to everyone's surprise, the eighty-first request is granted, and Observer Sutty is sent upriver to Okzat-Ozkat, a small city in the foothills of Rangma, to talk to the remnants in hiding of a cult practising a banned religion. On Aka, everything that was written in the old scripts has been destroyed; modern aural literature is all written to Corporation specifications.

The Corporation expects Sutty to report back so the non-standardised folk stories and songs can be wiped out and the people 're-educated'.

But Sutty herself is in for an education she never imagined.

To me this telling ranks among Ursula's very best works among The Dispossessed and The Left Hand of Darkness.
The heroine is convincingly female - receptive, gentle, well mannered and considerate but of a quiet unwavering determination.
As always I delighted in finding some philosophical gems in it, which to name would be a spoiler.
The parallels to current events will probably escape hardly any reader, even where this happened and is happening less disruptively at snails pace, one little bit at a time.
Beautifully narrated, too. Perfectly matching the main character.

One of her Best
