Bonus points for any books you believe are classics from that time period. Any language, but only fiction please.

I’m really excited to see what Lemmy has.

    Can I cheat? Ursula K LeGuin’s first famous book, A Wizard of Earth sea, was published in 1968. Amazing stuff. Also I love her short story, The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas.

      I’m a huge fan so am biased, but I’d allow it. The Dispossessed is another classic.

      I only read “The Left Hand of Darkness”. That novell was fire (no pun intended). Excellent world building and super captivating and immersive writing.

      Great Author sadly disqualified due to date for the thread.

      My only hope for her is that she has more to put out before she passes. Damned good author.
