Across this stretch, locals with roots in the town overlap with visitors staying in its run-down motels: a man questions his wife's desire to be a poet; a summering librarian indulges in an affair; a waitress recalls the shooting of her teenage daughter by her own husband. And always, women walk on the long, long beach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd as the narrative shifts from the horizontal present to the vertical past, a four-generation chain of mothers and daughters reaches back to Klatsand's beginnings - and forward to its future. In Searoad, trailblazing feminist author Ursula K. Le Guin paints a vivid and powerfully evocative portrait of a small community built over the course of a century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat:Paperback \/ softback 256 pages\u003cbr\u003ePublisher:Orion Publishing Co\u003cbr\u003eImprint:Weidenfeld \u0026amp; Nicolson\u003cbr\u003eISBN:9781399631686\u003cbr\u003ePublished:14 May 2026\u003cbr\u003eClassifications:Modern \u0026amp; contemporary fiction (post c 1945)\u003cbr\u003eWeight:228g\u003cbr\u003eDimensions:129 x 197 x 21 (mm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wave of Nostalgia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64627629031773,"sku":null,"price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/8838\/2301\/files\/9781399631686.jpg?v=1778074673","url":"https:\/\/waveofnostalgia.co.uk\/products\/searoad-by-ursula-k-le-guin","provider":"Wave of Nostalgia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
