Escrito em 1974 pela brilhante e premiada Ursula K. Le Guin, Os Despossuídos é uma ficção científica incomum, utópica e distópica, sobre dois planetas gêmeos separados por conflitos e desconfianças, e um homem que arriscará tudo para reuni-los.

Urras é um mundo de abundantes recursos dividido em vários estados-nação. Em meio a extremos de riqueza e pobreza, dois deles estão em guerra para estender sua influência – e seu sistema político – sobre os demais. Anarres, por sua vez, é o planeta recluso e anarquista gêmeo de Urras, cuja visão utópica de seus colonizadores acabou criando uma ilusão de sociedade perfeita. Essa ilusão só é quebrada quando Shevek, um jovem físico brilhante de Anarres, descobre a Teoria da Simultaneidade, uma ideia que pode acabar com o isolamento de seu planeta e, ao mesmo tempo, avivar as guerras do planeta vizinho.

Seguindo o estilo de Le Guin, este livro aborda questões de fundo sociológico, como liberdade, desigualdade, individual versus coletivo, e temas políticos cruciais, como anarquismo e polarizações políticas. Embora seja fruto da influência da Guerra Fria, este livro continua cativante e extremamente atual. Situado no mesmo universo ficcional de A mão esquerda da escuridão, outro clássico da autora, Os Despossuídos recebeu o prêmio Nebula em 1974 e os prêmios Hugo e Locus em 1975.
