With Ai in Orgoreyn it's so clear how this book reflects the political maneuvering of the Cold War (which is when it was written). You get a dance of political posturing, nibbling at borders, control of information, violence by Secret Police but not overt war. So far the difference in sexual morphology and culture is almost just an interesting aside

Having a hard time with all the terms introduced that are central to understanding the culture of the planet Winter but aren't explained or defined, just left to context. Unless there's a glossary I'm missing?
