For one second all I know, everything is made of snow

I was just informed that there will be a television adaptation of Ursula K. Le Guin's The Left Hand of Darkness (1969).

If the Gethenian characters are not cast with genderqueer actors, I will feel someone is missing the point.

Yes: the journey over the ice could work well on camera, but so much of what's going on in that chapter is conversation and introspection.

I feel very strongly that good television can be made of conversation, but I agree that introspection is tricky.
