  The Dispossessed is set on Anarres and Urras, the twin inhabited worlds of Tau Ceti.

    Dammit, that’s what I get for going on 25-year old memory of last reading the book. In my defense, one of the main character narrators captains a space ship that goes between Earth and Mars and this provides insight into the two cultures.

    Oh and BTW he’s got a wife on both worlds. Spicy

        Nope, never read anything by Samuel R. Delany

        I did read a lot of L Ron Hubbard, for a moment I thought you were referencing his short story collection
