A complex book of big ideas. We follow a scientist that ends up embroiled in the sociological implications of his home, the anarchist utopia of the moon Anarres, and how it differs from the planet Urras, which heavily features a more capitalist society. It's an interesting political treatise on these various types of societies and how they both fail at achieving a real utopia, for different reasons. This is a book that really makes you think and wonder at what we could be as a society.
