Forced into servitude, the Athsheans  find themselves at the mercy of their brutal masters.     Desperation causes the Athsheans to retaliate against their captors,  abandoning their strictures against violence. In defending their lives,  they endanger the very foundations of their society. Every blow against  the invaders is a blow to the core of Athsheans' culture. And once the killing starts, there is no turning back.   Winner of the 1973 Hugo award for Best Novella, and nominated for many others, The Word for World is Forest  is part of Le Guin's 'Hainish Cycle'. It explores a future history of  Earth and pacifistic ideals in its depictions of violence, colonialism  and resistance.
