Powers by Ursula Le Guin

I am so pleased that Powers, the third book in Le Guin's trilogy Annals of the Western Shore has won a sixth Nebula for her. It is the most remarkable book about the quest for freedom, identity, self-knowledge. Reading it felt like being given a gift of wisdom and craft. The other books are splendid, but Powers is something special.
