I am
impressed and I am depressed, but I am not dispossessed.
Impressed: Whether it is Le Guin's use of words, her
parse, straightforward style, or her sheer insight, there were many times while
reading The Dispossessed when I felt
the gnawing of self-doubt. Many times when I said to myself: "I could
never write that good."
Hence,
depressed, after
being impressed.
But I’m
not dispossessed and I'll tell you
why.
