Description
Winner of the 1971 Nebula Award for Best Novel, A Time of Changes is widely regarded as one of Robert Silverberg's greatest achievements and a landmark of literary science fiction. Set on the distant world of Borthan, where the simple word "I" is considered taboo and personal identity is suppressed by rigid social custom, the novel follows a man's spiritual and emotional awakening as he challenges the traditions of his society. Combining profound philosophical questions with imaginative world-building, Silverberg explores individuality, freedom, language, and human connection in a work that remains as thought-provoking today as when it first appeared. This 1979 Berkley paperback edition includes a new introduction by the author and represents an increasingly collectible edition from one of science fiction's most celebrated writers. Protected in a new archival-quality removable sleeve.
