About “Always Coming Home”
Always Coming Home is a 1985 science fiction novel by Ursula K. Le Guin. The book is structured as a narrative, a pseudo-textbook, and a pseudo-anthropologist's record. It portrays the life and society of the Kesh people, a cultural group living in a distant future after modern society has collapsed. The story is presented through the perspective of Pandora, who appears to be an anthropologist or ethnographer from a culture similar to the reader's. Pandora frames the work as a protest against contemporary civilization, which the Kesh refer to as "the Sickness of Man." (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
