"It’s not a weapon or a woman can make a man, or magery either, or any power, anything but himself."
"She had felt herself the one left outside, shut out. She had fled from the Powers of the desert tombs, and then she had left the powers of learning and skill offered her by her guardian, Ogion. She had turned her back on all that, gone to the other side, the other room, where the women lived, to be "

"Tenar signed. There was nothing she could do, but there was always the next thing to be done."
"Tenar put her to bed and sat wth her, singing to her. When the child was overtired she could not sleep, but would crouch in the bed like a paralyzed animal, staring at hallucinations till she was in a nightmare state, neither sleeping nor waking, and unreachable.

地海中的普通人,男与女。
There's something within us,inherent.It has been there long before the word existence itself.
And even we are in the most despair,peril,lost everything,we still have it. And that,not status,power nor gender,is what makes us who we are and who we'll become.
Only here do i truly fall in love with Ged the man,not Ged the wizard.
太爱冬日小屋的段落,感觉看到了我梦想的生活)
地海三部曲被女权批评是女性写的男人主角成长的故事,而这本是勒古恩多年之后想要重新书写地海世界的第一本书。所以当时听书的重点老是放在“那她要如何挑战之前自己的固有思维呢”。而当女性作为主角时,好像也没办法不审视,作者所投注精力描述的“女”是不是只是一种传统意义上feminity的展现。我很难说清她的诠释是不是我能感到满意的一种,但这本书在情感上既温柔又充满力量,母爱就仿佛一团火焰,或者说就像书里的龙一样,长久而不衰。有点怪但还是很喜欢的一本(尤其是相比于tomb of atuan)
Not as great as the first three. I don't have quarrel with adding elements in the old story as long as it doesn't contradicts old ones. The Ged we knew from the old books was a great mage not because he has power but he knew how to obey the great balance of the world. Now he became an average joe sulking in midlife crisis without his power.
