City of Illusions

''City of Illusions'' is a 1967 post-apocalyptic science fiction novel by Ursula K. Le Guin which is set on Earth in the distant future in her Hainish Cycle. ''City of Illusions'' is significant because it lays the foundation for the Hainish cycle which is a fictional world in which the majority of Ursula K. Le Guin's Science Fiction novels take place.〔Bernardo, Susan M. & Murphy, Graham J. ''Ursula K. Le Guin: A Critical Companion'', (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 2006), pages 18-19.〕
==Plot introduction==
''City of Illusions'' takes place on Earth, also known as Terra, in the future, twelve hundred years after an enemy named the Shing has broken the power of the League of All Worlds and occupied Earth. The indigenous people of Earth have been reduced in numbers and are widely separated and live in highly independent rural communes or nomadic tribal societies. The Shing exercise control over these people by using various strategies of indirect control which include divide and rule as well as deceptive telepathic mental control also known as mind-lying. In contrast, innately truthful telepathy is known as mindspeech.
Prior to the opening scene, the main character, who is a descendant of the protagonists in ''Planet of Exile'', has been involved in a ship crash, and since the Shing do not believe in killing, has had his memory erased and been abandoned in the forest; this leaves his mind as a blank slate or ''tabula rasa''. As the story begins he must develop a new self-identity ''ex nihilo''.
