Ursula K. Le Guin   

overview

A brilliant physicist attempts to reunite two planets separated by centuries of distrust, facing hostility, threats, and personal sacrifice in his quest to tear down walls of hatred and ignite change.

The Principle of Simultaneity is a scientific breakthrough which will revolutionize interstellar civilization by making possible instantaneous communication. It is the life work of Shevek, a brilliant physicist from the arid anarchist world of Anarres. But Shevek’s work is being stifled by jealous colleagues, so he travels to Anarres’s sister-planet Urras, hoping to find more liberty and tolerance there. But he soon finds himself being used as a pawn in a deadly political game.
