The dispossessed; an ambiguous Utopia

Centuries ago, the moon Anarres was settled by utopian anarchists who left the Earthlike planet Urras in search of a better world, a new beginning. Now a brilliant physicist, Shevek, determines to reunite the two civilizations that have been separated by hatred since long before he was born. The Dispossessed is a penetrating examination of society and humanity -- and one man's brave undertaking to question the unquestionable and ignite the fires of change.

  • ""Shevek, a brilliant physicist, decides to take action. He will seek answers, question the unquestionable, and attempt to tear down the walls of hatred that have isolated his planet of anarchists from the rest of the civilized universe. To do this dangerous task will mean giving up his family and possible his life. Shevek must make the unprecedented journey to the utopian mother planet, Urras, to challenge the complex structures of life and living, and ignite the fires of change."@en

  • ""Sur Anarres, les proscrits d'Urras ont édifié, il y a cent soixante-dix ans, une utopie concrète fondée sur la liberté absolue des personnes et la coopération. Ce n'est pas un paradis, car Anarres est un monde pauvre et dur. Mais cela fonctionne. A l'abri d'un isolationnisme impitoyable qui menace maintenant la société anarchiste d'Anarres de sclérose. Pour le physicien anarresti Shevek, la question est simple et terrible. Parviendra-t-il, en se rendant d'Anarres sur Urras, à renverser le mur symbolique qui isole Anarres du reste du monde? Pourra-t-il faire partager aux habitants d'Urras la promesse dont il est porteur, celle de la liberté vraie? Que découvrira-t-il enfin sur ce monde d'où sont venus ses ancêtres et que la tradition anarrestie décrit comme un enfer? Avec Les Dépossédés, Ursula Le Guin a écrit, au-delà d'une utopie qu'elle qualifie elle-même d'ambiguë, un important roman politique comme la littérature américaine en a peu produit depuis Le Talon de fer de Jack London."
  • "The story of Shevek, a brilliant physicist who single-handedly attempts to re-unite two planets cut off from each other by centuries of distrust. Anarres, Shevek's homeland, is a bleak moon and he risks everything in a courageous visit to Urras, the mother planet."
