The great utopian science fiction classic in a brilliant new translation. Ursula K. Le Guin's 'The Dispossessed' is one of the most significant utopias of the 20th century, clearly posing the question of systems - communism, capitalism, or anarchism? Older editions have been published under the titles 'Planet of the Have-Nots' and 'The Dispossessed'. The only place on Anarres that is separated from its surroundings by a wall is the spaceport. From here, the precious metals mined on the planet are flown once a year to the neighboring planet Urras. For the rulers of Urras, the anarchistic Anarres is nothing more than a dependent mining colony to be exploited as efficiently as possible. However, for the inhabitants of Anarres, their home is the only place in the entire solar system where they are truly free.
