«Los desposeídos: una utopía ambigua» is the science fiction novel by Ursula K. Le Guin published in Spanish by Minotauro in paperback, with 384 pages.
Shevek, a physicist from Anarres, an isolated planet without government, travels to Urras, the original world of his society. The novel contrasts two models of life and examines the price of ideals, freedom, power, and human relationships. The ambiguity of both utopias runs through Shevek's journey and sustains a reflection on society and the individual.
Originally published in 1974; this Spanish edition, subtitled «una utopía ambigua», appeared in 1995.
A read for lovers of science fiction with social and political background and for followers of Ursula K. Le Guin.
