"Here together for the first time are all five remarkable standalone novels by the writer who transformed American speculative fiction. In The Lathe of Heaven, George Orr has dreams that have the power to change reality itself. The Eye of the Heron is set on the planet Victoria in a former Terran prison colony ripe for revolution. The Beginning Place follows two young people who discover a portal to a different, seemingly better world. Searoad: Chronicles of Klatsand is a Winesburg, Ohio--like series of interconnected stories about the lives of artists and seekers in a small vacation town on the Oregon coast. Le Guin's powerful final novel, Lavinia, retells Vergil's Aeneid from the perspective of a woman who is not given a voice in the original. Volume features include hand-drawn maps by the author; three essays by Le Guin offering background on the novels; an updated chronology of her life and career; and detailed notes."--Dust jacket.
