A review by glam90
The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin

5.0

„It is not until an act occurs within the landscape of the past and the future that is a human act. Loyalty, which asserts tha continuity of past and future, binding time into a whole, is the root of human strength; there is no good to be done without it.
So, looking back on the past four years, Shevek saw them not as wasted, but as a part of the edifice that he and Takver were building with their lives. The thing about working with time, instead of against it, he thought, is that it is not wasted. Even pain counts.“

This book will stay with me for a long time.
