- Summary:
- One of Ursula K. Le Guin's most realistic works, Searoad: Chronicles of Klatsand , first published in 1991 is also among her most inventive. A series of interconnected stories set in a small vacation town off the coast highway in Oregon, this contemporary classic paints a vivid and powerfully evocative portrait of Klatsand's residents and the community they build over the course of a century. Some have deep roots in the village while others have come for just a weekend but all are pilgrims subject of inexpressible longings.
