One of the very best must-read novels of all time - with a new
introduction by Roddy Doyle 'A well told tale signifying a good
deal; one to be read again and again' THE TIMES 'The book I wish I
had written ... It's so far away from my own imagination, I'd love
to sit at my desk one day and discover that I could think and write
like Ursula Le Guin' Roddy Doyle 'Le Guin is a writer of phenomenal
power' OBSERVER 'There was a wall. It did not look important - even
a child could climb it. But the idea was real. Like all walls it
was ambiguous, two-faced. What was inside it and what was outside
it depended upon which side of it you were on...' Shevek is
brilliant scientist who is attempting to find a new theory of time
- but there are those who are jealous of his work, and will do
anything to block him. So he leaves his homeland, hoping to find a
place of more liberty and tolerance. Initially feted, Shevek soon
finds himself being used as a pawn in a deadly political game. With
powerful themes of freedom, society and the natural world's
influence on competition and co-operation, THE DISPOSSESSED is a
true classic of the 20th century.
