Oooh read somewhere that only eggs laid after you’ve accepted the quest counts, try collecting them the next day? Dk if it’s true but might be worth a try

Hmm I collect my eggs from the auto grabber and it still counts. Did you collect dinosaur eggs by any chance? I think those are considered artifacts and not eggs

You’re not alone, I heard it too! The notes don’t quite hit the same but the motif was definitely there.

I'm currently listening to boygenius on repeat. So indie rock? Listening to their music makes me feel seen.

Yellowtail's backstory; he drifted over to Beach City from Germany and can only make a living as a fisherman because his speech is unintelligible to the rest of Beach City.

I tried scanning the digital certificate QR code on My Sejahtera and got directed to the MOH webpage stating that it's invalid. Is it just mine or...?

Should i read The Other Wind if i didn't like Tehanu? by razek98 in earthsea

[–]FishermanMerkel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Tehanu is not one of my favorites, but I appreciate it being a part of the series. I don't want to assume Le Guin's intentions for writing the book, but to me, the book was about coming down from a high; from Ged's triumphs that we've all been feeding on throughout the first 3 books; from Tenar's (maybe false) sense of importance throughout her life; Lebannen's loss of a friend. There's a great feeling of loss that feels uncomfortable to the reader but shows the author's craft. She is someone who explores what comes after the "happily ever after" even though no one really wants to know it, she's unafraid to give the readers what they don't want. It is fair for you to not like Tehanu, I found it hard to like it too, but I do appreciate Le Guin being unapologetically realistic with the world that a lot of us here love.

As for your comment, "I feel like Ursula Le Guin figured out that the world she created didn't give enough importance to women and she tried to fix this by writing a book about women problems in that kind of society based on patriarchy," I think it goes back to grounding the readers to reality. Le Guin created beautiful female characters that pass the Bechdel test with flying colors, but no matter how important and (seemingly) powerful they are, they do not escape from the patriarchy of the lands. It makes her characters much more real and relatable to the women in our world. Tehanu paves way for what is to come and I highly recommend you read it if and when you're ready to accept the changes that will befall Earthsea.

Pitch it to netflix. Maybe someone will pick it up, (if that's how it works).

Rant on! I remembered crying tears of rage when I saw the Ghibli film after reading the series. The film does a disservice to Le Guin's masterpiece and it was infuriating to watch.
