- One minute read - 77 wordsThe Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas by Ursula K. Le Guin

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I finally read this incredibly influential short story. I’ve recently read other short stories that directly call it out. I realize now that other stories that didn’t mention it by name were still referencing its style.
It’s a bit dated in some of its terminology, but it’s still a pretty great story for getting you thinking about philosophical ideas.
