Despite science fictions foundation in Mary Shelly's Frankenstein, women authors of sci fi were few and far between. That is, until the women's movement saw a wave of new writers who took home Hugo and Nebula awards, leaving their mark on science fiction forever. One of these writers was Ursula K. Le Guin. The daughter of anthropologists, Le Guin's family frequently had famous academics and scientists over, and they deeply influenced her writing like her first science fiction novel, The Left Hand of Darkness. The Left Hand of Darkness is a story about isolation and exclusion from a very interesting perspective and asks the question, what would a society without gender look like?
