An experimental novel that urges readers to take a more active role by creating the parts of the story themselves. Le Guin provides pieces of the story, and, from those raw materials, the reader constructs the rest. Moreover, in Always Coming Home , the beginning is arbitrary--there is a thematic center to the novel, and the narrative branches out in many directions from the center. It includes poems, plays, short stories, commentary, music, recipes, essays, and information about the fictional Kesh tribe in article-glossary format. This book is a multimedia product--including pictures, text, and a cassette featuring music and spoken word--and was created about ten years before CD-ROM technology filtered down to a mass audience.
