   How does Le Guin introduce Utopia in the dispossessed?

   • Le Guin brings her own innovations to the literary tradition of utopia. Many earlier utopian novels featured a visitor to utopia, as a device to teach the reader about its institutions. However The Dispossessed inverts this, by having Shevek, dissatisfied with his life in Annares, travel to Urras.

   Oct 13, 2009 · I find this a challenging read, on several levels across multiple fields. The informal subtitle is “An Ambiguous Utopia”. I agree it is ambiguous but I find no utopia. It comes across to me as dystopic. It’s a society founded on anarchic communal ideals, in a backdrop much like the Israeli kibbutzim from the very late 1800s to 1960s.
