Synopsis "Los desposeídos (in Spanish)"

Los desposeídos narra la historia de Shevek, un físico brillante que vive en Anares, un planeta aislado y "anarquista", que decide emprender un insólito viaje al planeta madre, Urras, en el que impera el "proletariado". Shevek cree por encima de todo que los muros del odio, la desconfianza y las ideologías, que separan su propio planeta del resto del mundo civilizado, tienen que ser derribados. En este contexto, Ursula K. Le Guin explora hábilmente algunos de los problemas más urgentes de nuestro tiempo: la posición de la mujer en distintas estructuras sociales, la complejidad de las relaciones humanas, los méritos y promesas del socialismo y el anarquismo, y las perspectivas del idealismo político en el mundo actual.

Ursula K. Le Guin (Berkeley, California, 1929-2018) was a key American author in fantasy literature and science fiction, known for her deep social and philosophical explorations in imaginary worlds. She particularly stood out for two major cycles: the fantasy saga Earthsea - which begins with A Wizard of Earthsea (1968), a story of growth and magic - and the Hainish or Ekumen Cycle, which includes science fiction novels with strong social themes, such as The Left Hand of Darkness (1969) and The Dispossessed (1974).

Her works address complex issues such as gender, politics, anarchism, and ecology, with a critical and humanist approach. She was awarded multiple prestigious prizes, including eight Hugos, six Nebulas, and twenty-two Locus, in addition to the National Book Award and the Newbery Medal. In 2003, she was named Grand Master by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, and received the Alternative Nobel Prize in Literature.

Le Guin left a literary legacy that combines brilliant imagination with deep reflection on the human condition and social justice, establishing herself as an essential voice in twentieth-century literature.
