Binding strong. 77pp. Final page with multiple creases. Light tanning to edges of page block; contents clean and bright. The narrative revolves around the deepening friendship between Owen, an aspiring scientist, and Natalie, a talented musician. Both characters feel isolated and misunderstood due to their intellectual pursuits and ambitions, which set them apart from their peers. As they bond over their shared experiences, they provide solace and support for each other, eventually developing romantic feelings. Throughout the novel, Owen and Natalie face various challenges, including academic pressure, familial expectations, and societal norms. The story explores themes of friendship, love, self-acceptance, and identity, as well as the challenges that highly gifted individuals encounter in a society that may not fully appreciate or understand their potential. The novel has been praised for its empathetic and nuanced portrayal of the protagonists' struggles and emotions. Le Guin's ability to convey the sense of isolation and distance experienced by Owen and Natalie has resonated with readers, making the book a beloved entry in the young adult genre. The novel's subtle exploration of gender roles and questioning of traditional expectations further adds to its appeal. RightWayUp Books aims to provide accurate and detailed descriptions.
