The Dispossessed - An Ambiguous Utopia

Published in 1974, The Dispossessed is one of Ursula K. Le Guin's seven Hainish Cycle novels, and among her most celebrated works. Subtitled "An Ambiguous Utopia," it alternates between two worlds: an anarchist society built on radical equality and collective ownership, and a prosperous capitalist planet it broke away from. Neither is presented as the answer. Winner of the Nebula, Hugo, and Locus awards for best novel.
