More about the book

Orsinia... a land of medieval forests, stonewalled cities, and railways reaching into the mountains where the old gods dwell. A country where life is harsh, dreams are gentle, and people feel torn by powerful forces and fight to remain whole. In this enchanting collection, Ursula K. Le Guin brings to mainstream fiction the same compelling mastery of word and deed, of story and character, of violence and love, that has won her the Pushcart Prize, and the Kafka and National Book Awards. - The Fountains - The Barrow (October 1976, The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction) - Ile Forest - Conversations at Night - The Road East - Brothers and Sisters (1976, The Little Magazine, Vol.10, Nos.1&2) - A Week in the Country (1976, The Little Magazine, Vol.9, No.4) - An die Musik (1961, The Western Humanities Review, Vol.XV, No.3) - The House - The Lady of Moge - Imaginary Countries (1973, The Harvard Advocate)
