This is the spellbinding story of Shevek, a brilliant physicist who single-handedly attempts to reunite two plants cut off from each other by centuries of distrust. Anarres, Shevek's homeland, is a bleak moon settled by an anarchic utopian civilization; Urras, the mother planet, is a world very similar to Earth, with its warring nations, great poverty, and immense wealth. Shevek risks everything in a courageous visit to Urras - to learn, to teach, to share. But his gift becomes a threat. . . and in the profound conflict which ensues, Shevek must re-examine his philosophy of life. An unread mass-market paperback, 311 pages with drawings of the planets. Light wear at the spine ends and bottom front corner. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
