Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! This week we look at "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" by Ursula K. Le Guin. A fantastic piece on utilitarianism and guilt. Let's talk about the structure, can you change it?, and compare it a bit to some other popular pieces on it like The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky and The Lottery by Shirley Jackson.
