summary
George Orr is a man whose dreams have the power to alter reality. When he awakens, he remembers nothing of his dream, but the changes he makes endure. His dreams are uncontrollable, and the impact on the world can be calamitous. To avoid punishment for actions he never intended, George seeks the help of a psychiatrist named William Haber. However, Haber, blinded by ambition and seeking to create his own utopia, hypnotizes George to control his dreams. George soon realizes the disastrous impact of Haber’s experiments and seeks to counteract them. With the help of his lawyer and his girlfriend, George attempts to harness the power of his dreams for good. A thought-provoking blend of science fiction and philosophy, Ursula K. Le Guin’s classic novel will leave readers questioning the very nature of reality itself.
