Always Coming Home	comment	Always Coming Home is a 1985 Pastoral Science Fiction novel by Ursula K. Le Guin describing an After the End future.The civilization we know has collapsed. The world has barely any resources left, the ecology is in shambles, vast parts of the land are polluted and poisonous. But a few people still live there. The population is miniscule compared to the pre-catastrophe era, and a good proportion of the babies are stillborn due to genetic diseases. The people accept this situation.The book is mostly centered around the Kesh People who live in nine towns in the Valley of River Na, what we nowadays know as the Napa County, California, near Mount Saint Helena (a sacred location to them). They are a simple, utopian society with low population, technology limited to the level they can maintain comfortably, and no government in the sense we know it.There is still Internet available. Surviving AIs maintain the network for people in exchange for data about the people. The AIs also maintain research, space infrastructure, probes launched to study the universe — all to the extent that it doesn't interfere with the ecosystem.It is largely an example of worldbuilding, containing descriptions of the Kesh culture, their language, as well as their folklore. The original edition even had a cassette included, with songs and poems in the Kesh language. Currently, these are available for purchase both in digital form and vinyl records.In 2019, an expanded edition of the book came out, containing both new material (such as the Kesh language syntax in addition to the glossary) and a number of essays explaining the backstory and Le Guin's lectures on related subjects.

Always Coming Home / int_11e0d645	comment	Arc Symbol: Heyiya-if, a hinged spiral reflecting the world view as described above, with the left arm representing Earth and the right Sky. The Kesh include it not only in things like their drawings; their cities are laid according to it, with the left arm containing living houses (in case of the largest town, several arms were needed), the right arm, the heyimas (multifunctional public structures), and the hinge being some sort of spring or waterfall.

Not so much in other cases described: both Stone Telling and Shamsha fell pregnant from a rape, and Shamsha didn't even see it as something serious enough to tell others, nor saw a reason to abort the child. The Rape, Pillage, and Burn actions of the Dayao, on the other hand, aren't taken lightly.

Likewise, it is entirely possible to say that a person is wealthy in the modern sense of possessing much instead of giving much, it just won't be seen as a positive trait. However, the Kesh grammar allows for no means to express the idea of owning a living being; any attempt to say it will come across as a Russian Reversal-style comedy.

Always Coming Home / int_bcba27a1	comment	Putting on the Reich: The Dayao. Warlike conquerors, with youth parading through the street. An Armchair Military Glorious Leader who is considered infallible and accepts no criticism, punishing anyone disagreeing. Attempts to take on every neighbor in sight instead of concentrating on one at a time. Racist ideology which considers them alone true humans. Obsession with Awesome, but Impractical superweapons at the expense of regular military.
