In What has occurred to many of us by now, is that there are similarities between The Dispossessed and Elysium (with bald Matt Damon). If we look back at all of the novels we have read this semester, and as we have found, the drive to create an accurate depiction of the future can be exemplified through a multiplicity of theories. The two planets that are presented in The Dispossessed serve not as a comparison between a utopia and a dystopia, but as two separate approaches to achieve utopian space. ![]()
