Once a culturally rich world, the planet Aka has been utterly transformed by technology. Records of the past have been destroyed, and citizens are strictly monitored. But an official observer from Earth will discover a group of outcasts who still practice its lost religion-the Telling. Intrigued by their beliefs, she joins them on a sacred pilgrimage into the mountains...and into the dangerous terrain of her own heart, mind, and soul.

An amazing novella by Le Guin, and queer rep to boot. A lesbian with religious trauma learns to love and cherish a "religion" or at least a way of seeing and experiencing the world.
