We do see Rocannon both as an alien anthropologist and as an Odin-figure, but it feels more forced. It’s also hard to like Rocannon, he’s too typical of the SF anthropologist hero, well equipped and resourceful, but too questioning of himself and the world to get away with that. I get the feeling that the story was pushing in the “what these people need is a honky” direction, in which Rocannon becomes a better alien than the aliens while saving their world and his, but Le Guin already right at the beginning of her career was pushing uphill against the weight of story. Tout d’abord, ce roman datant des années soixante présente de nombreux rebondissements et les personnages de Le Guin sont de la même veine que dans Terremer, trop humains et très attachants. Mais hélas, ce résumé se suffit à lui-même. Après un voyage qui constitue les trois quarts de l’intrigue et présente de nombreuses difficultés, la fin semble téléguidée… C’est bien mérité, dirons-nous. Et bien, non ! Depuis quand mérite-t-on de réussir parce qu’on a souffert ? Depuis qu’on lit l’imaginaire. Voilà exactement ce qu’on pourrait reprocher à ce livre un peu désuet : on y retrouve le pire (et il y en avait un peu, pas beaucoup, mais un peu) de Terremer ; un rien de niaiserie, un zeste de facilité narrative et une légère morale manichéenne que le plaisir du conte atténuait largement. C’est peut-être un tort de l’époque, cela dit. Mais cette fin téléguidée, l’enjeu rempli trop facilement, choque malgré tout. Le roman en devient sans grande conséquence, ni agréable ni pénible. Il traîne juste un peu en longueur, pour l’introduction à un cycle qui s’étend tout de même sur sept tomes… Appartiene alle SerieCiclo di Haynish (1) Appartiene alle Collane EditorialiBerghs SF (11) Prisma Science Fiction (1624) ハヤカワ文庫 SF (823) È contenuto inWorlds of Exile and Illusion: Three Complete Novels of the Hainish Series in One Volume di Ursula K.

This debut novel from preeminent science-fiction writer Ursula LeGuin introduces her brilliant Hainish series, set in a galaxy seeded by the planet Hain with a variety of humanoid species, including that of Earth. Over the centuries, the Hainish colonies have evolved into physically and culturally unique peoples, joined by a League of All Worlds. Earth-scientist Rocannon has been leading an ethnological survey on a remote world populated by three native races: the cavern-dwelling Gdemiar, the elvish Fiia, and the warrior clan, Liuar. But when the technologically primitive planet is suddenly invaded by a fleet of ships from the stars, rebels against the League of All Worlds, Rocannon is the only survey member left alive. Marooned among alien peoples, he leads the battle to free this newly discovered world and finds that legends grow around him as he fights. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

I canoni classici del romanzo di avventura/viaggio/ricerca sono, come da stile tipico della LeGuin, mescolati con temi psicologici/sociali/etici ma il tutto è molto acerbo, incompleto, scarsamente sviluppato.
Si ha la forte sensazione di incompiuto, quasi si stesse leggendo una bozza e non un romanzo vero e proprio.
Forse va inteso come un romanzo di formazione. ( )
