The Eye of the Heron

Ursula K. Le Guin · Harper & Row · 1983

US Harper & Row hardcover is the first separate edition. Note a date ambiguity: the copyright page is dated 1982 and many dealers catalogue the book as 1982, while Le Guin's own bibliography gives 1983; both years appear on confirmed first-printing copies.
