Le Guin comes a classic tale of two planets torn apart by conflict and mistrust & #8212; and the man who risks everything to reunite them.A bleak moon settled by utopian anarchists, Anarres has long been isolated from other worlds, including its mother planet, Urras—a civilization of warring nations, great poverty, and immense wealth. Now Shevek, a brilliant physicist, is determined to reunite the two planets, which have been divided by centuries of distrust. He will seek answers, question the unquestionable, and attempt to tear down the walls of hatred that have kept them apart.To visit Urras—to learn, to teach, to share—will require great sacrifice and risks, which Shevek willingly accepts. But the ambitious scientist's gift is soon seen as a threat, and in the profound conflict that ensues, he must reexamine his beliefs even as he ignites the fires of change. 521 0 Text Difficulty 3 - Text Difficulty 4 521 8 820|bLexile. 533 Electronic reproduction.|bNew York :|cHarperCollins e- books,|d2009.|nRequires OverDrive Read (file size: N/A KB) or Adobe Digital Editions (file size: 1311 KB) or Kobo app or compatible Kobo device (file size: N/A KB) or Amazon Kindle (file size: N/A KB). 650 7 Science Fiction.|2OverDrive 650 17 Fiction.|2OverDrive 655 7 Electronic books.|2local 776 1 |cOriginal|z9780061054884 856 40 |uhttp://link.overdrive.com/?websiteid=388&titleid=12697 |zclick to access digital title.
