unshared interests (in LJ terms, that is)

[redbird]

Always Coming Home (a novel I love, by Ursula Le Guin, one that many other people seem to find difficult or unappealing);
Daniel M. Pinkwater (delightful writer; I wonder if this is unshared because other Pinkwater fans have listed other variants of his name);
irregular classical noun plurals;
latvian folk sock motifs (thrown in there to be unique at a time when I had no unshared interests);
platypodes (speaking of irregular plurals);
significant otters (silliness and seeking uniqueness).

Ah, Always Coming Home is my favourite Le Guin. I've still to find the music. What I need to do someday is go sit under a madrone in a friend's woodland on top of one of the Santa Cruz mountains and read the whole thing - chanting the songs and reading the stories out loud...

As a local geography geek, one of the things I love best about ACH (which I read when it came out, including listening to the tape of stories and songs) is imagining her geography as my geography (it is!) and placing her places in modern context as well as the time in which the book is set.

I think you may well know just who's tree it would be, too!
