Tenar was a better female character and she’s from a book published in NINETEEN SEVENTY TWO!!

GUYS it’s DEPRESSION

Power is borne out of stability, if the entire admin changes every X years, no one can gain authority

Shevek is deluded to think that an administration that literally vetoes his letters doesn’t have some kind of power over him. Compels me, though…..

Friends with benefits 🤝 the benefits are friendship 🤝

I THOUGHT YOU WERE BISEXUAL.

Space Adam was evicted from the space garden of Eden for counting all his fingers, which unleashed time… Shevek is working on a theory of time… I think there’s some kind of “theme” in this book…

Lowkey a society that fully sponsors its unis and professors is very rad. Like I understand the whole “profiteering capitalists” angle, but the funding of science isn’t part of that I fear

This Shevek dude is cooooool
