has seasonal allergies. Ursula K. LeGuin is such a good writer, and this morning, reading Gifts, I told my wife: "She always wrenches my heart."

I started to laugh, while blowing my nose, because it was so ridiculous: it was allergies, not the book, but then I was laughing and sobbing because, suddenly, it was the book.
