    Excellent characterization and meaningful ideas make this one of the most important [science fiction] novels of the last several years., "Written with thought, care--even love." -- Times Literary Supplement (London) "Excellent characterization and meaningful ideas make this one of the most important [science fiction] novels of the last several years." -- Library Journal "This novel, by a celebrated Hungarian poet, depicts the world of his childhood...The narrator, a young boy whose family is shunned-it was once wealthy and is suspected of being Jewish-endures beatings, hunger, and taunts with the fatalism of someone who has never known anything else." -- New Yorker "Le Guin's characters, sepecially Shevek and his family, are complex and haunting, and her writing is remarkable for its sinewy grace." -- Time magazine "Engrossing . . . Ursula Le Guin is more than just a writer of adult fantasy and science fiction . . . she is a philosopher; an explorer in the landscapes of the mind." -- Cincinnati Enquirer "A seamless creation: every thing is made up, nothing seems arbitrary...Le Guin's book [is] written in her solid, no-nonsense prose." -- New York Times Book Review "Brilliantly conceived and stunningly executed . . . The setting is science fiction, but the tradition is humanistic, reducing life to its essentials and examining human beings in a real world." -- Chicago Daily News "The novel flashes back and forth . . . and delicately develops both the strengths and weaknesses of the two social systems, the contrasting textures of the two kinds of social experience . . . All through, this impresses with small but incalculably right choices which add up solidly and confirm Ms. Le Guin as one of our finest projectionists of brave old and other worlds." -- Kirkus Reviews, The novel flashes back and forth . . . and delicately develops both the strengths and weaknesses of the two social systems, the contrasting textures of the two kinds of social experience . . . All through, this impresses with small but incalculably right choices which add up solidly and confirm Ms. Le Guin as one of our finest projectionists of brave old and other worlds., "Le Guin expanded the boundaries of fiction not just by committing to its revolutionary capacities but also by considering deeply, and with great clarity, other ways of being. The Dispossessed, her most intricate and beautifully realized book, channels her lifelong obsessions--Daoism, pacifism, humanity's sacred relationship to the natural world--into a moving story that is also about loneliness, will, and what it means to return home. More than a novel, this is an ontological work of extraordinary imagination and compassion." -- Meng Jin, The Atlantic "Fifty years later, Ursula K. Le Guin's novel about utopian anarchists is as relevant as ever. . . . Inexhaustibly rich and wise . . . . The arrow of time has sped forward since 1974, but the circles and cycles of Le Guin's masterpiece continue to suggest, with urgent humanity, both present and future." -- Scientific American "The Dispossessed is still one of Sci-Fi's' smartest books. . . . Remains a thoughtful exploration of politics and economics nearly 50 years later." -- Wired "The Dispossessed paints a hopeful and complex portrait of a society rooted in collectivism." -- Naomi Klein, The Week "Le Guin's most philosophical novel. . . . The Dispossessed is a study of character, ideology and the constant of change." -- New York Times "Written with thought, care--even love." -- Times Literary Supplement (London) "Le Guin's characters, sepecially Shevek and his family, are complex and haunting, and her writing is remarkable for its sinewy grace." -- Time magazine "Engrossing . . .

She has done more to show people why this is an important genre--and maybe the mode of literature we need to navigate our way into a very uncertain future--than anyone else ever will." -- Lisa Yaszek, Professor of Science Fiction Studies in the School of Literature, Media, and Communication at Georgia Tech "One of our finest projectionists of brave old and other worlds." -- Kirkus Reviews, This novel, by a celebrated Hungarian poet, depicts the world of his childhood…The narrator, a young boy whose family is shunned-it was once wealthy and is suspected of being Jewish-endures beatings, hunger, and taunts with the fatalism of someone who has never known anything else., Le Guin's characters, sepecially Shevek and his family, are complex and haunting, and her writing is remarkable for its sinewy grace., "Written with thought, care--even love." -- Times Literary Supplement (London) "Excellent characterization and meaningful ideas make this one of the most important [science fiction] novels of the last several years." -- Library Journal "Le Guin's characters, sepecially Shevek and his family, are complex and haunting, and her writing is remarkable for its sinewy grace." -- Time magazine "Engrossing . . .

    Synopsis
    "One of the greats....Not just a science fiction writer; a literary icon." - Stephen King From the brilliant and award-winning author Ursula K. Le Guin comes a classic tale of two planets torn apart by conflict and mistrust -- and the man who risks everything to reunite them. A bleak moon settled by utopian anarchists, Anarres has long been isolated from other worlds, including its mother planet, Urras--a civilization of warring nations, great poverty, and immense wealth. Now Shevek, a brilliant physicist, is determined to reunite the two planets, which have been divided by centuries of distrust. He will seek answers, question the unquestionable, and attempt to tear down the walls of hatred that have kept them apart. To visit Urras--to learn, to teach, to share--will require great sacrifice and risks, which Shevek willingly accepts. But the ambitious scientist's gift is soon seen as a threat, and in the profound conflict that ensues, he must reexamine his beliefs even as he ignites the fires of change.
