Stories and poems deal with coyotes, lions, ants, cats, donkeys, horses, hawkes, plants, and rocks.

At the far end of our universe, on the twin planets of Werel and Yeowe, all humankind is divided into "assets" and "owners," tradition and liberation are at war, and freedom takes many forms. Here is a society as complex and troubled as any on our world, peopled with unforgettable characters struggling to become fully human. For the disgraced revolutionary Abberkam, the callow "space brat" Solly, the haughty soldier Teyeo, and the Ekumen historian and Hainish exile Havzhiva, freedom and duty both begin in the heart, and success as well as failure has its costs.</p>
In this stunning collection of four intimately interconnected novellas, Ursula K. Le Guin returns to the great themes that have made her one of America's most honored and respected authors.</p>

One of America's most respected, most admired writers--winner of the National Book Award in 1992 and twice a finalist--delivers an eloquent and moving collection of mainstream short stories.

The winner of the Pushcart Prize, the Kafka Award, and the National Book Award, Ursula K. Le Guin has created a profound and transformational literature. The award-winning stories in A Fisherman of the Inland Sea range from the everyday to the outer limits of experience, where the quantum uncertainties of space and time are resolved only in the depths of the human heart. Astonishing in their diversity and power, they exhibit both the artistry of a major writer at the height of her powers and the humanity of a mature artist confronting the world with her gift of wonder still intact.</p>

For fourteen years, Weed, as she is called, the daughter of Lord Garnet, has brought offerings to the standing stone. Alone in a shallow valley, she implores the stone not to forget her. To remember who he is and the life he led. To wait until the day he will be avenged.
Now the day has finally arrived. After fourteen long years of waiting, he will have his revenge and she will have her father back.
Or will she?
Master storyteller Ursula LeGuin takes readers back to Earthsea with this hauntingly beautiful tale of betrayal and revenge.

擁有天賦的力量，並不代表自由唾手可得。
唯有經過撕心裂骨的覺醒，
才能學會為自己奮戰，並為自己的選擇負責。
葛維過目不忘，偶爾還能在「視象」中回憶起「未來」的片斷，他活在他所在之處，也活在他不在之處；但這種內在力量無從解釋，也無法掌控。因此，他在姊姊明智的建議之下藏起天賦，平凡度日。
葛維從有記憶以來就是奴隸，一個快樂、知足的奴隸，不曾想過奴隸之外的生活，困在粉飾太平的牢籠中而不自覺，直到城市遭逢戰亂，他向來相信的一切、他的整個世界，一夕之間破碎崩毀。
悲慟至極的葛維關閉了心門，選擇忘卻他已失落的，因為他並不曾擁有過。他踏上危險旅程，邁向空無一物的前方，探尋一個他並不明瞭的目標。從表面太平的城市到看似自由的森林，他的身體自由了，卻找不到心靈的歸屬；從森林再到孤絕封閉的沼地，天賦的力量與過去卻仍如鬼魅般糾纏不去。
葛維的旅程究竟會將他帶往何方？是追尋自由？是追尋他的原鄉族人？還是針對他奇特的內在力量，追尋其真正用途？

話語文字的刀刃，有時比刀劍武力更為鋒利。
阿茲人用武力輕易毀滅安甦爾城，然而，話語文字的力量何以令他們恐懼？
安甦爾城，人稱「慧麗安甦爾」，城中聳立孕育知識的大學、保存文化與智慧的圖書館、壯麗宏偉的高塔建築，以及千百座大理石建造的大小神廟。安甦爾深受神諭眷顧。
然而，現在的安甦爾，是一座到處斷垣殘壁，充斥飢餓、恐懼與絕望的破敗之城。入侵的阿茲人認為文字是邪惡的魔法，藏書萬千的安甦爾城更是罪無可赦。
玫茉系出高華氏系，解讀神諭、為安甦爾城指點迷津本該是高華家的職責，但神諭沉寂已久。十七年來，玫茉學習閱讀祕室中最後的藏書，文字滋潤她的心；但家園被毀、親人受盡折磨，讓她心中仇恨不斷滋長；她只知道，阿茲人是永遠的敵人，她要殺光阿茲人。
知名的詩人歐睿久聞安甦爾文風鼎盛，他受阿茲人之邀，與妻子馴獸人桂蕊一同到來。阿茲人雖視文字為惡魔，卻熱愛詩人講述的故事，意料不到的是，歐睿講述的故事不僅娛樂了阿茲人，也擾動了潛伏於安甦爾城底下的暗流。
安甦爾人失去信仰與文字，在被壓迫的沉默中度過十七年。
延續已久的仇恨與戰爭，該如何結束？
沉默了二百年的神諭，何時會再重新發聲？
當你被迫面對深惡痛絕的敵人，竟發現他們並不全然殘忍可恨，你該視而不見地對他們採取報復手段，或是說服自己忘卻仇恨、寬恕敵人？

天賦，是恩賜的禮物，但如果這個禮物足以毀滅世界，你要怎麼與它共存？
這是一片貧瘠孤立的高地；居民如這片土地，嚴酷、兇猛。為了擴張領土，爭取生存空間，鄰近氏系爭戰不休。唯有「天賦」制衡彼此，維持氏系間脆弱的和平。歐姆世家能縱火燃燒；考林世家能搬移重物；摩各世家有「內視力」，你想什麼，他們看得一清二楚；提柏世系的男人可以操控人心，按他的意志行事；波瑞世系的女人能提取心智，使人變成一只空殼。
在這裡，聰敏緘默的少女桂蕊繼承召喚動物的天賦，但無法狠心遵照家族傳統，喚動物來讓獵人捕獵；敏感纖細的少年歐睿繼承消解的天賦，僅一個注視、手勢，就使生命灰飛湮滅，但這股強大力量不受控制。不顧父親的嚴厲反對，歐睿蒙起雙眼，讓狗兒黑煤兒與心愛的桂蕊成為他的眼睛。他以為自己能抵抗命運，但在這塊苛刻之土，有無法放下的原始責任，與難以化解的仇恨糾葛。
身為族長之子，歐睿必須負起延續純正天賦血統的職責，他與異族之女通婚，無法自由與心愛的女孩相守；還必須戰勝心魔，解開蒙住的雙眼，為族人貢獻他的天賦。在他以為自己的命運已經註定，未來卻在這時急轉彎，氏族之爭越演越烈，歐睿的世界出現巨大裂痕……
當人生開始失控，陪伴身邊的親人與愛人是最後扶持；當無力改變環境，找出共處之道是唯一出路。願用天賦照亮世界的黑暗角落，雖困難重重，但終有一絲光明。
