The Left Hand of Darkness is a 1969 novel by Ursula K. Le Guin. Its treatment of the gender-changing Gethenians was one of the first serious science fictional explorations of how gender roles are or are not associated with physical sex and how both can be different from accepted norms.
The book won the Nebula and Hugo Awards as well as a Retrospective Tiptree Award.
