Just can't stop. I'm reading books from Ursula K. Le Guin like they were meant for me.
They are just so good that I can't stop reading them.
This one is about two twin planets. One has life on it but the other doesn't. The first planet called Urras is much like Earth (yet is not like we realize from book). There are many nations and they have conflicts (wars in common language). Most of the planet is hierarchic so there are great differences between poor and reach people.
But in a point of time many people wants to have anarchy, so they emigrate to the other planet, Annares. There they live in peace. They do not have any kind of authority they are all the same. No money, no property. They all do what it takes to survive. They Share. They even have their own language.
The story is telling us about a young physicist that is researching a new field of science that no other has discovered yet. He runs in to "trouble" when his mentor publishes his work as work of both of them. The mentor is being selfish and that should not happen in society like this. A young scientist wants to share his research with people on Urras that know at least something about domain he is working on.
The story is leading us through his life on Urras and Annares and shows us the differences between both of the planets.
I enjoyed the book very much.
