ADHD Book Club
The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas with Eric Silver | Short Story Special
31 Jul 2023
"The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" is a 1973 short work of philosophical fiction by American writer Ursula K. Le Guin. With deliberately both vague and vivid descriptions, the narrator depicts a summer festival in the utopian city of Omelas, whose prosperity depends on the perpetual misery of a single child About Us: ADHD Book Club is a podcast that celebrates reading and neurodiversity. We're a group of friends who are always on the lookout for good books, but we know that life can get busy and overwhelming. That's why we've designed our book club to be ADHD-friendly: we read small, manageable chunks of books and then come together on the podcast to discuss them. Our conversations are lively, unscripted, and sometimes chaotic, but always honest and insightful. We share our personal perspectives, ask each other thought-provoking questions, and let our brains wander wherever they may. Whether you're neurodivergent or not, if you love books and want to join a community that celebrates reading in all its forms, then come along and join the ADHD Book Club!
