The Dispossessed

Om boken

'One of the literary greats of the twentieth century' Margaret Atwood

Shevek is a 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 twentieth century.
