One of The Atlantic’s Great American Novels “One of the greats. . . . Not just a science fiction writer; a literary icon.” —Stephen King "Engrossing. . . . [Le Guin] is a philosopher; an explorer in the landscape of the mind." —Cincinnati Enquirer In celebration of its fiftieth anniversary, a commemorative edition of Ursula K. Le Guin’s Hugo, Locus, and Nebula Award–winning classic, a profound and thoughtful tale of anarchism and capitalism, individualism and collectivism, and one ambitious man’s quest to bridge the ideological chasm separating two worlds. This special edition includes a new foreword by Karen Joy Fowler. The Dispossessed is the spellbinding story of anarchist Shevek, the “galactically famous scientist,” who single-handedly attempts to reunite two planets cut off from each other by centuries of distrust. Anarres, Shevek’s homeland, is a bleak moon settled by an anarchic utopian civilization, where there is no government, and everyone, at least nominally, is a revolutionary. It has long been isolated from other worlds, including its mother planet, Urras—defined by warring nations, great poverty, and immense wealth. Now Shevek, a brilliant physicist, is determined to unify the two civilizations. In the face of great hostility, outright threats, and the pain of separation from his family, he makes an unprecedented trip to Urras. Greater than any concern for his own wellbeing is the belief that the walls of hatred, distrust, and philosophic division between his planet and the rest of the civilized universe must be torn down. He will seek answers, question the unquestionable, and explore differences in customs and cultures, determined 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. Almost immediately upon his arrival, he finds not the egotistical philistines he expected, but an intelligent, complex people who warmly welcome him. But soon the ambitious scientist and his gift is seen as a threat, and in the profound conflict that ensues, he must reexamine his beliefs even as he ignites the fires of change.

With Wole Soyinka as his only possible rival, Athol Fugard is the best known African playwright. However, where the Nigerian is actively involved in politics - he has in the past been imprisoned as a result of this involvement, and as recently as June 2005 a rally was held in Ibadan, backed by Soyinka, to promote a conference to end ethnic and political violence in Nigeria - Fugard's politics are to be found in his texts rather than his actions.

Ursula K. Le Guin's The Dispossessed is of interest to political theorists because of its association with anarchism, and because it is thought to represent a turning point in the history of utopian/dystopian political thought, literature, and science fiction. Published in 1974, it marked a revival of utopianism after decades of dystopian writing. The widely accepted view is that The Dispossessed represents a new kind of literary utopia, called a “critical utopia” by Tom Moylan. The present work challenges this reading of The Dispossessed and its place in the histories of utopian/dystopian literature and science fiction. It explores the differences between traditional utopian novels and suggests that The Dispossessed is not a utopian novel but a novel about utopianism and politics. Le Guin's concerns relate more to nineteenth-century European Realists than with science fiction of utopian literature. It also claims that her theory of the novel has an affinity with ancient Greek tragedy and implies that there is a conservatism in Le Guin's work as a creative writer, which fits uneasily with her personal commitment to anarchism.
